“The Political and Media Instrumentalization of Transgender Identity”

Simon Coutu explores the rise of transphobia and the weaponization of transgender identity in political and media discourse. Meeting with members of the trans community and with right-wing organizers who denounce what they call “gender ideology,” he seeks to understand how transgender identity has become such a polarizing issue in Québec.
