Don't mind us. We just want a short but official intro episode that we can share across streaming platforms.

We are Marsha’s Plate, a progressive podcast hosted by three trans people of color. We launched in October of 2017 in response to the 2016 election. We didn’t like how the media was covering the trans narrative by focusing just on the bathroom bills popping up all across the country. We wanted to create a show, named after the pioneer Black trans baddie Marsha P. Johnson, that shared the more pressing disparities of the trans community but also the victories and joys of our lives. Our hosts are millennials that represent the feminine and masculine sides of the trans experience. We have been featured on Spotify, ABC, The Root, Stanford, Bitch Media, Aljazeera, World Pride NYC, and at SXSW twice. Our creator and producer Diamond Stylz is a 25-year vet trans activist. She is the executive director of Black Trans Women Inc and a board member of Transfaith. Mia Mix is a Houston socialite and sex worker. LJ aka Jonathan is a black genderqueer trans guy from Milwaukee living in Seattle. 

We discuss pop-culture current events, sex, relationship, and gender every week. Diamond brings a wide range of experience and formal education and history. Mia Mix makes it hot by bringing humor and Southern belle spirit to every conversation. LJ aka Jonathan brings the masculine, genderqueer trans guy next door perspective. We know that everybody is not invited to the cookout and that this is for us by us. 

People can use our show as a resource to learn passively with force your trans friend to always have to do the labor of educating you. It is so easy and non-invasive. You tune in, just listen, and learn.BOOM!!! That’s easy. We introduce our audience to the news with deeper trans insights and seasoned or emerging trans community leaders throughout the country. This is important work because it archives the current trans movement, spotlights activists doing amazing work, and highlights the news that impacts trans people's lives around the globe which is a narrative ignored by mainstream news outlets.
