Eli is part of the Chair in Transgender Studies and their supervisors are Dr. Aaron Devor from Sociology and Dr. Nancy Clark from the Social Justice Studies Program. Eli is an international graduate student and they share part of their academic journey and some resources for other international students. Eli has a social psychology background and they share their research work with community-based approaches in Canada and Mexico. Recently, Eli was awarded a fellowship through the Chair in Transgender Studies for their research work related to Trans+ topics.
In this episode, Eli shares key terminology regarding LGBTQ2+ themes. Also, we discussed important topics around gender identity. In a very casual and organic way Eli and Matty had a rich conversation and came up with questions and answers to elucidate more regarding key concepts ---Beyond the Jargon--- such as What is the story of the word Transgender? What does it mean to be non-binary? Why is it important to use pronouns? What does it mean to be a “Joto” or “Marica” in Latin America?
