Best Of: Laverne Cox /Comic Ali Siddiq
Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from Fresh Airβs own podcast host.
For over a decade, Laverne Cox has been one of the most visible trans women in America. In her new memoir, βTranscendent,β she writes about growing up in Mobile, Ala., and the bullying and harassment she faced. She says she survived it by going somewhere else in her mind, often through music and dance.
Also, we hear from comic Ali Siddiq. He served six years in a Texas prison and turned his life into some of the most-watched storytelling in comedy.
