Charlie Craggs: ‘Trans rights and women’s rights can co-exist’


Listen Later

In this week’s episode, Em and Al are joined in the studio by Charlie Craggs, a British transgender actress, activist, and author from London. Charlie talks about her recent experience in court, where she was fighting a trans hate crime. She talks about how she was misgendered in court, and how the court handled her case by letting her attacker off, and what message this sends. 

From this, Charlie is setting up free self defence classes for trans women, to ensure other trans people feel safe in public. The three discuss activism online and the media’s role in the debate around trans rights.
