This episode on Queering The Air, Sasja hosted photographer Marlo W(link is external) and two of his subjects, Tiff Tan and Josephine Mills, to discuss the impactful book “Foreground: Portraits of Older Transgender and Gender Diverse People”(link is external).
Foreground celebrates the often unnoticed older transgender and gender diverse community, aiming to destigmatise and share their stories with the wider audience. By showcasing the voices of marginalised older TGD individuals positively, it challenges stereotypes perpetuated by mainstream media.
Marlo’s debut photography book features portraits and interviews with 18 older TGD individuals. Proceeds from pre-orders will fund the second edition and support donations to LGBTQIASB+ organisations, programs and libraries located in homes for the ageing.
