Listen Later

Join us as we explore the remarkable journey of Beverly Glenn-Copeland, a groundbreaking musician and transgender pioneer. From his early days as one of McGill University's first Black students to his 25-year career in children's television and the creation of the innovative album "Keyboard Fantasies," we'll trace Glenn-Copeland's path to becoming an inspiration for LGBTQ+ elders. This episode delves into his late-in-life transition, musical renaissance, and lasting impact on both the arts and transgender history.
