I’m Zinnia Jones (she/her), a trans woman, researcher, and activist in Orlando, Florida. I transitioned in 2012 and have volunteered myself since then as a community advocate for transgender people collectively. I have spent years trying to give trans people the resources we need to survive. And for a time, it was good. But because of the current crisis of transphobia and far-right politics corroding trans rights near-daily in the United States, it is now necessary to document and track these events as they occur.
Gender Ideology with Zinnia Jones will provide an index of political attacks on trans people’s existence, showing why the specific events of today, yesterday, or this week were particularly alarming, disastrous, threatening, frightening, calamitous, and a danger to the basic integrity of trans life. This is our gender ideology: survival. ⬣
