Heidi Breaux |
TEDxTulane
• March 2021
Many professors think being affirming to transgender people is comprised of using their correct name and pronouns, however affirming behaviors go far beyond this. They stretch to include remaining away from pathological thinking, implicit bias, binary views on gender, victim or burden blaming, exploitation, tokenism and so much more. This speech will help the viewer understand many additional components that are essential to all work in unison, in order to create safe spaces on campus for transgender and gender-diverse students, faculty, and staff.
