Tuck chats with trans studies scholar and Minneapolis resident Aren Aizura (he/him). Topics include:

• How a protest camp in the Australian desert helped free dozens of immigrant detainees(!!)
• How Aren's kids are reacting to ICE occupying their neighborhood
• How Twin Cities organizing has remained leaderless and decentralized
• Being subjected to archaic HBIGDA "true transsexual" guidelines and a political background check while trying to access top surgery!?
• Plus: Australian hippies, tear gas, Tim Walz, the YMCA sauna, and audio of a baby talking to a cat in a bag :)

Through The Wire, a 10-min independent documentary about the 2002 breakout from Woomera Detention Center, is available to stream here. (cw: incarceration, injury, police violence)

Find Aren on Bluesky @incommensurati. Aren's book, Mobile Subjects, is available from Duke University Press.
