More important to me than my identity, I am also the Vice President of the NewsGuild of New York, and targeting me with a blatantly retaliatory termination like this feels like an egregious shot against our union and against media workers as a whole.

I love my job, I love my coworkers, and I love my union. I'm devastated the company made this move. There are so few trans women in media at all — particularly ones who aren't confined to "Queer Media" — and I was incredibly proud of what my position at Bon Appétit meant within the industry.

I was acting as a union member and concerned employee when I questioned Stan Duncan, well within my legal rights.

I don't love pointing to my identity, but the company saying that I was behaving "aggressively" when I was calmly asking questions feels like a clear transphobic dog whistle.

I believe this is what we call a portfolio career. He has a communications coach listed publicly as a service he provides.

Honestly this isn’t news. A peace deal was close when Biden was in office 👀
