Who runs this?

My name is Greyson (they/them/their, vi/vir/vis) and I’m the founder of the Trans Language Primer. I’ve been out as queer since 2003 and out as genderqueer and trans since 2009. I started my work within the community at Genderfork as a photo curator (2009-2010), in early Trans Youtube running my own channel and participating in collabs (2009-2011), and on early Trans Tumblr where I ran multiple projects (2010-2014). I then moved to Facebook where I worked as a community manager for the Facebook Transgender Alliance (2014-2017). It was here that I decided to create the TLP after struggling for years to point folks in the direction of resources that were comprehensive enough to get newbies started, but flexible enough to keep pace with the community’s exploration of gender. In 2015, I was recognized by the Trans100 for my work with the FTA and the beginnings of the TLP alongside many other amazing community workers. I also completed the Out In Front leadership program that same year where I was able to meet other community builders from around my local region. I’m passionate about reaching back to help others. I believe that the only way we’ll survive the fascist onslaught against our community is by working across our differences to support each other. It’s with this spirit that I run the TLP. Any money that doesn’t go back into the website or associated costs goes directly into supporting other trans people. We’ve all got each other and we can all do our best.

AGRADECIMIENTOS ESPECIALES

Mx. Michon Neal of The Metanoiac Portal, who was our sensitivity reader for 2017 and whose edits were instrumental in making this a document that can supply a foundation of intersectional awareness and understanding around gender. If you have a document, project, or blog that even remotely deals with or needs an intersectional awareness of systemic privilege and oppression (aka everyone who has a document, project, or blog), should hire hir for this work. The insight that ze brought to the entire process of redrafting was incredibly beneficial.
