JRV MAJESTY Productions recently sat down with author H. Melt to ...

Gnat Brilmyer Interview a JRV MAJESTY Production

June 5, 2013 • 25 mins
"I think it is really important to check ourselves and to realize that yeah we can theorize all we want, but that's not going to put a roof over someones head, that's not going to get someone a meal. In some ways, how is that really important? I think it is great to mobilize thought and then mobilize as humans, but I think there is this very important time where we need to realize that our pretentious discussions here in this expen...

Jen Richards Trans 100 Interview a JRV MAJESTY Production

March 27, 2013 • 21 mins
Jen Richards on the importance of discussing race in the trans community: "A lot of trans activists will talk about the Transgender Day of Remembrance and I've seen a number of videos and read a lot of articles from white activists who never mention the fact that all the names on the list are women of color.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
