Transgender Australia – A History Since 1910

Jack and Rachel speak with academic, researcher and author Noah Roseman about his book Transgender Australia - A History Since 1910. Drawing on over a hundred oral history interviews and previously unexamined documents and media reports, it highlights how trans people have tried to live authentically while navigating a society that often treated them like outcasts. It is the first book to chart the history of gender diverse Australians, exploring both progress and ongoing battles.  See the book Transgender Australia - A History Since 1910 Victoria's Transgender History  - Transgender Victoria (TGV) 2021 report   Check out our other JOY Podcasts for more on LGBTIQ+ health & wellbeing.  If there’s something you’d like us to explore on the show, send through ideas or questions at [e-mail]  Find out more about LGBTIQ+ services and events in Victoria at Thorne Harbour Health and in South Australia at SAMESH.
