Fierté Trans | Transcestors : notre histoire et mémoire collective

Conference as part of the Trans Pride Festival 2025.

Language: French
Speaker: Marian Fournier

Contrary to popular belief, transgender people have always existed throughout history. This presentation explores the stories of our transgender ancestors before the 21st century, drawing on research in museology and archives. How have mechanisms of invisibility erased these histories, and how can we reintegrate them into our collective memory?

Through concrete examples and a reflection on the importance of a transaffirmative approach in history, this presentation emphasizes the need to document our realities and create intergenerational bridges. Preserving our stories is a way of resisting and celebrating our heritage.
