The #Transcon19 is quite the hoot, if you want to see intersectionality tearing itself apart. Not quite as dramatically hilarious as #NUSTrans18, but that did set a pretty high bar.
#TransCon19 Following up Renata Carvalho keynote on Brazil, here is the resource I mentioned - Sexuality Policy Watch led by wonderful Sonia Correa, just published reports on anti-gender movements across Latin America https://t.co/co3icZhVV8 @sxpolitics @TransConEdin
#TransCon19 The organizing committee is a team with collective responsibility. As indicated at the event we will be meeting swiftly to review feedback and decide a response (today speakers from abroad are being hosted in Edinburgh) @TransConEdin
#TransCon19 Feedback is welcome and can be emailed to the conference email address [email protected] given on the website @TransConEdin

@JoCliffordPlays: I want to play tribute to Renata Carvalho’s courage and I’m doing everything I can do spread it in the UK. Jo is working on a book about trans writers right now and Renata will be back in Scotland in October performing in Jo’s aforementioned play #TransCon19
"Extreme misogyny and extreme transphobia go hand in hand in Brazil and the same thing is happening in this country and we have to fight together with feminists." Jo Clifford. Jo and Renata are performing together in Edinburgh in October. #TransCon19
@JoCliffordPlays our struggle is connected with your struggle: it is important that we do not lose heart. Even our artistic work, which often seems futile, can have an amazing effect on another country, as I have discovered with my play. #TransCon19
@JoCliffordPlays says that Renata Carvalho has done a brilliant job of showing how violence against transpeople are hand-in-hand with misogynist attacks on women. The same thing is happening in the UK. We have to fight together, with feminists. #TransCon19
There were 400 audience members, who lit the play with their phones #TransCon19
During this performance, someone threw a bomb and the police came but Carvalho kept going with the play #TransCon19

Audience member recounting hearing that Renata Carvalho kept performing @JoCliffordPlays’s work even after security closed down the lights. They thank Carvalho for keeping going. She says this was the 4th censorship and she had to wear a bulletproof vest #TransCon19
Costa Rican audience member says Latin America is going the same way as Bolsonaro. Any ideas on what we can do? Carvalho says it’s the whole world going this way... it’s all about money, capitalism. Trump and Bolsonaro had the same person helping their campaign #TransCon19
The social construct of transvestis was done by the media. So it’s always the same story when you want to criminalise the body. You are dangerous, they say. When we are arrested, we are put in the same cell as sex offenders, says Renata Carvalho #TransCon19
If you want to help Brazilian trans people, be aware of the complicity of Europe in Brazil’s problems, says Renata Carvalho. European wealth is reliant on Brazil’s poverty. Universities can support trans Brazilians to go abroad with scholarships, etc, #TransCon19
@Adamkashmiry thanking Renata Carvalho for sharing, surviving and being here today. I think we can all agree with this appreciation. This keynote was powerful and important and we are so thankful to have a voice from Brazil #TransCon19
(Paraphrasing) ‘We need to naturalise, humanise and calm the eyes of cis eyes. We are still struggling. We are still dying’. Renata Carvalho finishes the talk with: welcome to transtiarchy: where all bodies natural #TransCon19
Keynote speaker from Brazil, Renata Carvalho "Brazil is responsible for 40% of the murders of trans people in the world, just for being trans. 122 in 2018." "The average life expectancy is 35 vs 75 in the rest of the population." #TransCon19
Renata Carvalho: Every 48 hours, a trans person is killed. 80% of transpeople killed are Black. I live in the privilege of whiteness. Carvalho then gives us lots of stats about misogynistic violence against women in Brazil #TransCon19
