After decades of burying her trans identity, attorney Mia Yamamoto deliberately publicized her transition as she came out to her clients, her colleagues, and the world. From a surprising moment of tenderness from a hanging judge, to the parallels between trans rights and reproductive rights, M.R. and Mia unpack the power of visibility and advocacy.

Thank you Mia, so much for sharing your story. I found your message to be relevant to the war being waged against our community, women and minority groups with all the anti-LGBTIQA+ bills, aborton rights, and racism.
