This is Buck Angel's personal retrospective. For context:
> Buck Angel (born June 5, 1962) is an American sex educator and former pornographic film actor and producer. He founded the media production company Buck Angel Entertainment. Angel is a transsexual man.[3][4] He currently works as an advocate and educator. Angel served on the board of directors of the Woodhull Freedom Foundation[5][6][7][8] from 2010 to 2016. The Foundation works to affirm sexual freedom as a fundamental human right through advocacy and education.[9]
Angel, per the video, appears to hold many views that seem inconsistent with standard narratives of activists for transgender rights. (Of course, I don't find them at all inconsistent with the described view of the Woodhull Freedom Foundation.) I had previously been entirely unaware of this association (although I did immediately recognize the name), and this perspective, so naturally I wanted to share it with everyone. (I'm told that "elevating marginalized voices" is a moral good, but really I just found it interesting.) I also noticed that Kirk's words, as described and documented, are inconsistent with some narratives being thrown around about his beliefs.

What a wise and great man to reach across an ideological divide for friendship. We should all emulate him with civility. Thank you.
