S7E17 - The KO Intiative on Supporting Trans People Fleeing Hostile States

Episode Summary

This week on Live Like the World is Dying, Inmn talks with Violet and Cat from the Kawaguchi O'Connor Initiative about the dangers that trans people are facing as the landscape around us gets more and more perilous. The KO Initiative helps trans people living in hostile states relocate to Washington state. They talk preparedness, making the decision to flee, how to travel, and the importance (and privilege) of having a support network.
