In this special episode join Anna Deshawn and special guest Amanda W. Timpson from Yesterqueers this LGBTQ History Month as they dive into the incredible story of Amelio Robles, the first openly transgender soldier in Mexican military history. Discover how Robles, a Colonel who fought under Zapata, transitioned in the early 20th century and was embraced by his comrades for embodying the epitome of a machismo soldier. In this video, learn how Amelio navigated post-war life, maintained his authentic identity, and left a lasting legacy that challenges conventional narratives around gender and history. Don't miss this powerful episode that not only honors Amelio Robles but also celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month. #AmelioRobles #LGBTQHistoryMonth #QueerHistory #HispanicHeritageMonth #TransPride #RevolutionaryHero #AnnaDeshawn #AmandaTheHistorian
