On this episode, Cody and Paul welcomed North American intersex community member and advocate Georgiann Davis to of The I in Us, for the first time.

Georgiann is an intersex scholar-activist whose research, teaching, and activism are at the intersection of institutional violence and feminist theories. She is a former board president of InterACT: Advocates for Intersex Youth, is a past-president of InterConnect Support Group and currently works as an associate professor of sociology at the University of New Mexico.

Georgiann is also a prolific author and recently published her new book, “Five Star White Trash: A Memoir of Fraud and Family”. Philip N. Cohen, author of Citizen Scholar: Public Engagement for Social Scientists, says of Georgiann’s newest book, “Davis has written a gripping sociological memoir, which explores key contradictions in American family life, including sex and gender, race and privilege, poverty and addiction, commitment and betrayal.
