Today I am honored to share this interview with my inspiring Sister Döro. She speaks under cover of anonymity about being transgender in Türkiye. The stories she tells are harrowing, and I ask each of you listening please to share this with as many people as you can. Improving conditions for transgender people everywhere must be a global concern.
