Pacific Northwest Adding the "I": Intersex Inclusion Beyond Fashion Statement
Should LGBT groups add the "I" (for intersex) to their acronym? If so, what does that mean for political agenda and priorities for our movements and communities?

Intersex activist Emi Koyama discusses what the connections are between intersex and LGBT movements and ways in which they should work together, as well as common mistakes that even good-intentioned people have made.
