PD 35-Dawn Wilson

Dawn Wilson is a name that most transgender people in the Louisville area know or should know.  In fact, in the state of Kentucky.  She has been involved in transgender rights on the political side for many years.  In fact, many would say that much of what we have in the area of legal rights in Louisville and Lexington is partly due to Dawn. 

Dawn was born in Chicago and then raised in Lexington, Kentucky.  She attended Transylvania University and the University of Kentucky.  She is currently involved with CFAIR and the Louisville Metro Human Relations Commission.  The Human Relations bascially deal with diversity issues and would be the organization you would contact if you felt your rights were being taking away from you.  Dawn is also very involved in the sport of Fencing as a very successful coach and athlete. 

We are very excited will have Dawn as our guest on Prism Radio April 19th at 10:00pm.  We will talk about her life growing up in Chicago and Kentucky, her early years as an activist in Kentucky and the current political and social issues facing the transgender community today.

You can write in questions or comments att prismdirection@aol.com..  We will not use your name unless you want us to.
