SHON FAYE IS A JOURNALIST, COMEDIAN AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR KNOWN FOR HER POLITICAL AND CULTURAL COMMENTARY ON LGBTQ+, WOMENS, AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES.
Shons' widely applauded, landmark work 'The Transgender Issue' published by Penguin Books, signals the beginning of a new, healthier conversation about trans life. It is a manifesto for change, and a call for justice and solidarity between all marginalized people and minorities. Trans liberation, as Faye sees it, goes to the root of what our society is and what it could be — it offers the possibility of a more just, free and joyful world for all of us. She has been Dazed’s LGBTQ+ editor-at-large, has contributed to the Guardian, VICE, Attitude, appeared in the UN campaign to end violence against women and is the presenter of the much-loved podcast Call Me Mother.
