The life and death of Leticia King: Protecting Trans Lives
TW: this episode discusses themes of racism, transphobia and murder.
Leticia King was only 15 when she was shot and killed by fellow classmate Branden McInerney.
Were there any warning signs? What could have been done to protect Leticia? What role did racism and transphobia play in this case? Is this an isolated incident? Does this happen in the UK? How was this not classed as a hate crime?
This is what will be discussed on this episode of Hysterical Woman.

A Woman's Right to Bodily Autonomy
Content warning: mentions of abortion and sexual assault throughout.
In this episode of Hysterical Woman, I discuss a woman's right to bodily autonomy with two special guests: Humeara and Christina. The motivation for this episode was hearing about a 'Students for Life' society at the University where I study. Upset by the message this society was spreading, I was keen to discuss with women from other backgrounds about how the 'pro life' viewpoint affects them.
