RFQ #007: "The Buzzfeed Video Changed My Life" (Irene)

What do you know about the “I” in “LGBTI”? On this week’s episode,
we talk with Irene, an activist with Intersex Russia, who talks
about her experiences being intersex – including how a Buzzfeed
video (really!) changed her life.   As mentioned in the
episode, here’s Irene’s article, "I Discovered I'm Intersex from
the Buzzfeed Video," along with the original Buzzfeed video, "What
It's Like to Be Intersex."   Check out Intersex Russia and
InterACT's websites. The two 2017 reports mentioned in our
conversation are:   • Human Rights Watch and InterACT, "I Want
to Be Like Nature Made Me: Medically Unnecessary Surgeries on
Intersex Children in the US" • Amnesty International, "First, Do No
Harm: Ensuring the Rights of Children Born Intersex"
