Inside Lavender Rights Project, with Jaelynn Scott
In this episode of Trans Heartbeat, Michelle Matlock sits down with Jaelynn Scott, Executive Director of Lavender Rights Project, a Black trans feminist organization rooted in community organizing, housing justice, and liberation work in Washington State and beyond.
Together, they explore what it means to lead with care, move systems, and center those most impacted, while remembering that trans+ people are not a debate, but human beings living full, complex lives. This is a conversation about justice, community, and how we show up for one another in real time.
