Episode Synopsis
Interview with Gemma Hickey, author of Almost Feral and contributor to Land of Many Shores, both published through Breakwater Books. From the cover: On July 2, 2015, influential social activist Gemma Hickey began a 908-kilometer walk across the island of Newfoundland to raise awareness and funds for survivors of religious institutional abuse. Almost Feral celebrates the community of support that gathered around this journey and recounts Hickey’s remarkable story of self-discovery which led to the realization that they are transgender. In this thought-provoking and wide-ranging autobiography, Hickey counters memories of sexual assault, bullying, and depression with inspiring reflections on faith, love, family, individual and communal identity, sex, gender, and acceptance. Through complex feelings of empathy and solitude, weakness and strength, suffering and recovery, Gemma Hickey’s Almost Feral chronicles a journey from one side of an island to the other side of personal identity—charting an unknown territory where one’s body becomes the map that leads to home.Pick up Almost Feral using this link to help the channel: https://amzn.to/3ZwhtmrOriginally broadcast on March 07, 2022 on CHMR 93.5 FM in St. John's, and on other great stations across the country.
