Want to be a better LGBTQ+ ally? This episode offers a real, compassionate starting point.
Photographer Zach Oren (he/him) joins BabyGay™ Podcast host & founder PJ Brescia (they/them) to share the story behind Ides of Gender — a powerful, seven-year photo series documenting over 650 trans and nonbinary people across all 50 U.S. states and territories. As a cisgender artist, Zach opens up about building trust, navigating privilege, and using photography to honor the truth and beauty of trans lives.
If you're seeking to deepen your allyship, support the trans community, or understand how art can shift culture and expand empathy, this conversation is for you.
