EP8: This is Wrong
#8 This one is for you if you have been struggling with your own Trans identity and the desire to claim your name on your social security card, driver's license, and the important documents that support claiming your true and authentic identity.
Today I shared my lived experience going to the Social Security Administration with a legal court order to change my name and a request to update my gender marker with the U.S. Government. Join me as I share my own painful experience with a SSA government official, how it impacts me as a Transmasculine person, and my thoughts and contemplations as an American and Transgender person. I also comment on where I have been as a host and the future direction of the Queer Carter Podcast!
