Led by Professor Scott Angus
This two-part course explores the stories and lives of two transmen, Albert J. D. Cashier and Lyons Wakeman. Both served in the Civil War and were buried with honors as men. Professor Angus will uncover how these trans soldiers navigated their identities both in their personal and professional lives. This research by Professor Angus proves that the US Government recognized Trans Soldiers before identity policy came into fashion
