Our Lady J!

The multi-talented Transparent writer transposes her classical and comedy careers as she celebrates the debut of her first album, Picture of a Man, and chats with correspondent Miss Barbie-Q about her fundamentalist Christian upbringing, gospel roots, sometimes torturous transition, and queer activism.

And in NewsWrap: a Japanese trans-man breaks the electoral glass ceiling, a U.S. appeals court boots a lesbian workplace bias lawsuit, Trump’s Supreme Court pick Gorsuch worries LGBTQ rights groups, Atlanta’s Federal Reserve Bank gets two firsts with one exec, international censors nix a gay “beast” in Disney’s Beauty, and more international LGBT news reported this week by Michael LeBeau and Frances O'Brien (produced by Steve Pride, written by Greg Gordon).
