HOME/TRANS PERSON

Chanel, 18, Queens NY

I have some
insecurities, but I
still tell myself and
feel that I’m the
bestest thing,
because I am, and no one can ever destroy that.

Transcending Self


is a life-affirming storytelling project consisting of narrative stories— portraits and interviews— with transgender and non-binary youth ages 3-20 and their families.

You may find wisdom and courage, you might find heartbreak and love. You may learn something about yourself or your family and friends.

You will find truth and love.


The young have so much to teach us if we only listen.
