Listen Later

In this episode we hear Margeaux's personal story, what led them to the memespace, +  what they've learned from living in a chronically ill body. We talk about queer wounding, attachment trauma, healing and wholeness. This episode is packed with delicious queer and trans culture/literature bits and fantastic book recommendations. If you're curious about transformative justice and how YOU can contribute to the Queer Utopian Agenda, this one's for you!

Margeaux Feldman (they/them) is a writer, educator, artist, and activist originally from Toronto, now based in between Edmonton, AB and Los Angeles. They hold a PhD in English Literature and Sexual Diversity Studies from the University of Toronto, where they wrote a dissertation about the intersections of trauma, chronic illness, intimacy, and care. Margeaux recently completed certificates in Integrated Somatic Trauma Therapy from The Embody Lab and Embodied Social Justice from Transformative Change. Their creative writing has been published in PRISM, GUTS: A Canadian Feminist Magazine, The Puritan, and the Minola Review, amongst others -- and they are the author of 11 self-published zines. Margeaux just finished their first book manuscript Touch Me, I’m Sick and is currently working on their next, Queer Wounds: Reckonings on Relationality and Harm. They also run the popular meme account @softcore_trauma
