Description
Have you ever been asked to change your gender identity at work? Lou shares what happens when they're asked by their employer to deny their personhood and values to make a few clients feel more comfortable. We explore the systems of oppression that made this situation possible, the lack of communication and support they experienced, and all the b******t that made us want to riot with Lou! We are so honored that Lou shared their story with us, and we are proud to highlight this story during Pride Month.
