Please join us for Transpositive PDX on Tuesday, June 21st on KBOO Community Radio as we talk with Rimona Eskayo about their new book  I’m Having Top Surgery: An Illustrated Guide for You and Me designed and illustrated by Rimona Eskayo with contributions from trans folks across Portland.  The illustrated pages of I’m Having Top Surgery interrupt the sterile dehumanizing realm of the operating room to offer a meditation on the political dimensions of medical gatekeeping and trans liberation.  There is a book release event happening this Saturday, June 25th at 5pm at Open Hand Health & Body, 2410 Se 10th Ave in Portland for Eskayo’s new book.  During the second half of the show we will be discussing current events in the news with the Transpositive Collective.

Transpositive is a biweekly program in Portland exploring themes important to those who identify as Transgender, Gender Non-Binary, and Gender Non-Conforming. Transpositive tries to connect listeners with the ongoing activist, arts, culture, and dialogue happening in Portland and beyond. Make your voice heard! Transpositive PDX is open to new and experienced programmers, guests, and events you want our community to know about. We are an open collective. Anyone identify as trans, gender non-binary, gender fluid is welcome to be part of our collective after completing some basic free radio training.
