Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.

More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.

Now.

Welcome, newbies! I'm a medical historian who likes to remind people the past was pretty awful.

If you ever wondered what would happen if you needed a leg amputated in 1832, or if you had a toothache in 1765 - look no further.

The Butchering Art has been by my side here in city government since my boyfriend gave it to me for Christmas last year! It is brilliantly written!
