Out Online: Trans and Queer Community on the Early Net26 jun1 u 06 min

<p>How did the early internet help shape today&#39;s transgender identity and activism? Scholar and CHM Book Prize winner <strong>Avery Dame‑Griff</strong> joined us to discuss his book, <em>The Two Revolutions: A History of the Transgender Internet, </em>and explore the digital origins of a movement that began long before today’s social platforms existed. The conversation was moderated by <strong>Joshua K. Reason</strong>, Assistant Professor of Africana Studies, at San Francisco State University.</p><p>This conversation was recorded on June 23, 2026, at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.
