Remember, Remember: Reflections on Dystopian Fiction

We’re mixing things up this week on Transcending Comics, in one of our annual solo-episodes. I’ll be discussing reflections on V for Vendetta (the graphic novel and the film) alongside other dystopian media, and what these mean to me as a trans creator in a state increasingly hostile to trans folk. If you enjoyed our episode, “It’s Morphin Time,” then this one’s for you! We’re once again mixing music and spoken word, this time we even have a few original pieces from some incredibly talented musicians who contributed their work for this episode! For those interested in seeing the film “I Am My Own Woman” that I mentioned in this episode, here’s a link where you can watch it for free (legally) online: https://rarefilmm.com/2022/03/ich-bin-meine-eigene-frau-1992/ If you would like to support the artists featured in this episode, here’s a few links to where you can find them online: Amdrag (Guitar Backtracks): YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@amdrag Spotify:   https://open.spotify.com/artist/76S4ZY9sup5zteAMpEBMp6?si=m-u15YgNRgG_4TJMeQO2jQ     A Small Bird: Personal Site: https://www.asmallbird.com/ Bandcamp: https://asmallbird.bandcamp.com/track/posh-polish  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4oogY16zvQ1pSEVhaGQsle?si=KLn2en8jRf6FyBfmVwUQ_w    Ancient Summer: Bandcamp: https://ancientsummer.bandcamp.com/album/vision-in-the-void  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7p0LIoi2tmjGvtBJvARGG8?si=6qPDvY4-QVyotEiwK5X2NQ  Be sure to read more of Elizabeth Sandifer’s work at: https://www.eruditorumpress.com/
