Prism was established in January 2019 to challenge the dominant and toxic national narratives by centering people closest to the problems and amplifying their ideas, experiences, and solutions. Prism is a platform for leaders, writers, and activists who have been underrepresented in national media to share their stories and perspectives, moving us closer to developing an accurate and responsible record of what is happening in our country. Journalists of color make up only 17 percent of all newsrooms. When people of color, and other underrepresented communities, aren't helping to shape the news we read and watch, then our stories simply don’t get told. That's why we created Prism: a new media experience that lifts up the voices, ideas and stories of leaders and activists from under-reported communities. It's time for our media to reflect all of us. As the nonprofit affiliate to Daily Kos, our mission is to make visible the people, places, and issues currently underrepresented in our democracy. By amplifying the voices and leadership of people closest to the problems, Prism tells the stories no one else is telling.

It guides you through strategies for engaging participants in courageous conversations with one another in ways that don’t shame and blame people into understanding. This book is a useful tool for individuals, organizations and college professors who are interested in learning techniques for guiding their audience through dialogue whereby they become open to listening to one another for understanding rather than holding on to old beliefs and maintaining a posture of defense.

From the Introduction: I’m going to be using we as someone thoroughly informed by the politics of difference, and by the identity politics that distorts it. I’m going to be using we in part to highlight how the beings responsible for global warming are not seahorses: they are humans, beings like me. It’s about time we figured out how to talk about the human species, while at the same time not acting as if the last few decades of thought and politics had never happened. We surely can’t go back to imagining some vanilla essence of “Man” underneath our differences. But if we don’t figure out how to say we, someone else will.

Definitions of Terms for use by the CCL LGBTQA+Diversity Outreach Team
agender
Person is internally ungendered.
ally
Generally speaking, an ally is a member of a privileged group who takes a stand against oppression (example: a white person who speaks out against racism). An ally works to become part of social change rather than part of oppression. A trans ally is someone who commits to being open-minded and respectful to people who may have different or unconventional gender identities or presentations; who takes the time to learn more about trans people and trans lives; who confronts assumptions around gender roles and gender presentation; and who works to change the misunderstanding and mistreatment of transgender and transsexual people.
asexual
Person who is not sexually attracted to anyone or does not have a sexual orientation.
bisexual
A person emotionally, physically, and/or sexually attracted to males/men and females/women. This attraction does not have to be equally split between genders and there may be a preference for one gender over others.
cisgender
describes someone who feels comfortable with the gender identity and gender expression expectations assigned to them based on their physical sex.
discrimination
Prejudice + power. It occurs when members of a more powerful social group behave unjustly or cruelly to members of a less powerful social group. Discrimination can take many forms, including both individual acts of hatred or injustice and institutional denials of privileges normally accorded to other groups. Ongoing discrimination creates a climate of oppression for the affected group.
gay
1. Term used in some cultural settings to represent males who are attracted to males in a romantic, erotic and/or emotional sense. Not all men who engage in “homosexual behavior” identify as gay, and as such this label should be used with caution. 2. Term used to refer to the LGBTQI community as a whole, or as an individual identity label for anyone who does not identify as heterosexual.
gender binary
The idea that there are only two genders or sexes—male/female or man/woman, and that a person must be strictly either/or.
gender identity
A person’s internal self-awareness of being either male or female, masculine or feminine, something in-between, or something other.
gender normative
A person who, by nature or by choice, conforms to mainstream gender-based expectations of society. Also sometimes referred to as “Genderstraight.”
gender oppression
The societal, institutional, and individual beliefs and practices that privilege cisgender (gender-typical people) and subordinate and disparage transgender or gender variant people. Also known as “genderism.”
genderism
see “Gender Oppression.”
genderqueer
A gender-variant person whose gender identity is neither male nor female, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.
genderstraight
see “gender normative.”
heteronormativity
The assumption, in individuals or in institutions, that everyone is heterosexual, and that heterosexuality is superior to homosexuality and bisexuality.
heterosexism
Prejudice against individuals and groups who display nonheterosexual behaviors or identities, combined with the majority power to impose such prejudice. Usually used to the advantage of the group in power. Any attitude, action, or practice – backed by institutional power – that subordinates people because of their sexual orientation.
heterosexual privilege
Those benefits derived automatically by being heterosexual that are denied to homosexuals and bisexuals. Also, the benefits homosexuals and bisexuals receive as a result of claiming heterosexual identity or denying homosexual or bisexual identity.
hir
A gender-neutral pronoun, used in place of him/her. Pronounced “here.” See also “ze.”
homophobia
The irrational fear or hatred of homosexuals, homosexuality, or any behavior or belief that does not conform to rigid sex role stereotypes. It is this fear that enforces sexism as well as heterosexism.
homosexual
A person primarily emotionally, physically, and/or sexually attracted to members of the same sex.
identity sphere
The idea that gender identities and expressions do not fit on a linear scale, but rather on a sphere that allows room for all expression without weighting any one expression as better than another.
intergender
A person whose gender identity is between genders or a combination of genders
institutional oppression
Arrangements of a society used to benefit one group at the expense of another through the use of language, media, education, religion, economics, etc.
internalized oppression
The process by which a member of an oppressed group comes to accept and live out the inaccurate stereotypes applied to the oppressed group.
lesbian
Term used to describe female-identified people attracted romantically, erotically, and/or emotionally to other female-identified people. The term lesbian is derived from the name of the Greek island of Lesbos and as such is sometimes considered a Eurocentric category that does not necessarily represent the identities of African-Americans and other non-European ethnic groups. This being said, individual female-identified people from diverse ethnic groups, including African-Americans, embrace the term ‘lesbian’ as an identity label.
LGBTQI
A common abbreviation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersexed community
oppression
The systematic subjugation of a group of people by another group with access to social power, the result of which benefits one group over the other and is maintained by social beliefs and practices.
prejudice
A conscious or unconscious negative belief about a whole group of people and its individual members.
queer
1. An umbrella term which embraces a matrix of sexual preferences, orientations, and habits of the not-exclusively- heterosexual-and-monogamous majority. Queer includes lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transpeople, intersex persons, the radical sex communities, and many other sexually transgressive (underworld) explorers. 2. This term is sometimes used as a sexual orientation label instead of ‘bisexual’ as a way of acknowledging that there are more than two genders to be attracted to, or as a way of stating a non-heterosexual orientation without having to state who they are attracted to. 3. A reclaimed word that was formerly used solely as a slur but that has been semantically overturned by members of the maligned group, who use it as a term of defiant pride. ‘Queer’ is an example of a word undergoing this process. For decades ‘queer’ was used solely as a derogatory adjective for gays and lesbians, but in the 1980s the term began to be used by gay and lesbian activists as a term of self-identification. Eventually, it came to be used as an umbrella term that included gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered people. Nevertheless, a sizable percentage of people to whom this term might apply still hold ‘queer’ to be a hateful insult, and its use by heterosexuals is often considered offensive. Similarly, other reclaimed words are usually offensive to the in-group when used by outsiders, so extreme caution must be taken concerning their use when one is not a member of the group.
sex
A medical term designating a certain physical combination of gonads, chromosomes, genitalia, secondary sex characteristics, and hormonal balances. Usually subdivided into “male” and “female,” causing some trouble for categorizing intersex bodies and those who otherwise fall in between those poles.
sex identity
How a person identifies physically: female, male, in between, beyond, or neither.
sexual orientation
The desire for intimate emotional and/or sexual relationships with people of the same gender/sex, another gender/sex, or multiple genders/sexes.
sexuality
A person’s exploration of sexual acts, sexual orientation, sexual pleasure, and desire.
stereotype
A preconceived or oversimplified generalization about an entire group of people without regard for their individual differences. Though often negative, can also be complimentary. Even positive stereotypes can have a negative impact, however, simply because they involve broad generalizations that ignore individual realities.
third gender
A gender-variant person whose gender identity is neither male nor female, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.
Broadly speaking, transgender people are individuals whose gender expression and/or gender identity differs from conventional expectations based on the physical sex they were born into. The word transgender is an umbrella term which is often used to describe a wide range of identities and experiences, including: FTMs, MTFs, cross-dressers, drag queens, drag kings, gender queers, and many more. Because transgender is an umbrella term, it is often thought to be an imprecise term that does not adequately describe the particulars of specific identities and experiences. (For example, the identity/experience of a post-operative FTM transsexual will probably be very different from that of a female-identified drag king who performs on weekends, but both are often lumped together under the term “transgender.”)
transactivism
The political and social movement to create equality for gender variant persons.
transgendered (Trans) Community
A loose category of people who transcend gender norms in a wide variety of ways. The central ethic of this community is unconditional acceptance of individual exercise of freedoms including gender and sexual identity and orientation.
transphobia
The irrational fear or hatred of those who are gender variant.
transsexual
An individual whose gender identity does not match the sex that was assigned to them at birth. Usually, transsexual people will seek hormonal and/or surgical treatment in order to bring their body into alignment with their gender identity. See also “gender identity” and “female-to-male transsexual.”
transvestite
A person who dresses in clothing generally identified with the opposite gender/sex. The preferred term in the U.S. is “cross-dresser.” See also “crossdresser.
transwoman
An identity label sometimes adopted by male-to-female transsexuals to signify that they are women while still affirming their history as males.
two-spirit
A term for some Native persons who have attributes of both genders, may have distinct gender and social roles in their tribes. The term ‘two-spirit’ is usually considered to specific to the Zuni tribe. Similar cross-gender and gender variant identity labels vary by group or nation.
ze
A gender-neutral pronoun, used in place of she/he. Pronounced “zee.”

Note on Queer and Transgender Ecology and Diversity Studies Sources
The queer theory and queer ecology studies sourced here focus on critical discussions about white masculinity in trans and non-binary spaces. Queer theory and queer ecology explore questions about the ways in which white masculinity impacts power dynamics within trans and non-binary spaces, and undermines inclusion, value, and belonging. Queer theory and queer ecology queers complex dynamics of power, privilege, and marginalization, dominionation, patriarchy (by men and women), and heteronormativity. Creating inclusive and equitable trans and non-binary culture happens by queering white masculine power dynamics.

Queering the Climate
We’ve trained for this fight. We have faced persecution because of who we are and stood up to those who denied our existence. Our communities faced near extinction throughout the early HIV/AIDS crisis. Today we are all facing the grave threat of an unstable climate. queer theory/ecology

This book walks you through the important steps to create a foundation where participants feel brave enough to take risks and share their stories and perspectives. It guides you through strategies for engaging participants in courageous conversations with one another in ways that don’t shame and blame people into understanding. This book is a useful tool for individuals, organizations and college professors who are interested in learning techniques for guiding their audience through dialogue whereby they become open to listening to one another for understanding rather than holding on to old beliefs and maintaining a posture of defense.

March 2018.
From the Introduction: I’m going to be using we as someone thoroughly informed by the politics of difference, and by the identity politics that distorts it. I’m going to be using we in part to highlight how the beings responsible for global warming are not seahorses: they are humans, beings like me. It’s about time we figured out how to talk about the human species, while at the same time not acting as if the last few decades of thought and politics had never happened. We surely can’t go back to imagining some vanilla essence of “Man” underneath our differences. But if we don’t figure out how to say we, someone else will. And as the Romantic poet William queer theory/ecology

Definitions of Terms for use by the CCL LGBTQA+Diversity Outreach Team
- from LGBT Terminology at The LGBT Resource Center, University of Southern California used as a main glossary.
agender
Person is internally ungendered.
ally
Generally speaking, an ally is a member of a privileged group who takes a stand against oppression (example: a white person who speaks out against racism). An ally works to become part of social change rather than part of oppression. A trans ally is someone who commits to being open-minded and respectful to people who may have different or unconventional gender identities or presentations; who takes the time to learn more about trans people and trans lives; who confronts assumptions around gender roles and gender presentation; and who works to change the misunderstanding and mistreatment of transgender and transsexual people.
asexual
Person who is not sexually attracted to anyone or does not have a sexual orientation.
bisexual
A person emotionally, physically, and/or sexually attracted to males/men and females/women. This attraction does not have to be equally split between genders and there may be a preference for one gender over others.
cisgender
describes someone who feels comfortable with the gender identity and gender expression expectations assigned to them based on their physical sex.
discrimination
Prejudice + power. It occurs when members of a more powerful social group behave unjustly or cruelly to members of a less powerful social group. Discrimination can take many forms, including both individual acts of hatred or injustice and institutional denials of privileges normally accorded to other groups. Ongoing discrimination creates a climate of oppression for the affected group.
gay
1. Term used in some cultural settings to represent males who are attracted to males in a romantic, erotic and/or emotional sense. Not all men who engage in “homosexual behavior” identify as gay, and as such this label should be used with caution. 2. Term used to refer to the LGBTQI community as a whole, or as an individual identity label for anyone who does not identify as heterosexual.
gender binary
The idea that there are only two genders or sexes—male/female or man/woman, and that a person must be strictly either/or.
gender identity
A person’s internal self-awareness of being either male or female, masculine or feminine, something in-between, or something other.
gender normative
A person who, by nature or by choice, conforms to mainstream gender-based expectations of society. Also sometimes referred to as “Genderstraight.”
gender oppression
The societal, institutional, and individual beliefs and practices that privilege cisgender (gender-typical people) and subordinate and disparage transgender or gender variant people. Also known as “genderism.”
genderism
see “Gender Oppression.”
genderqueer
A gender-variant person whose gender identity is neither male nor female, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.
genderstraight
see “gender normative.”
heteronormativity
The assumption, in individuals or in institutions, that everyone is heterosexual, and that heterosexuality is superior to homosexuality and bisexuality.
heterosexism
Prejudice against individuals and groups who display nonheterosexual behaviors or identities, combined with the majority power to impose such prejudice. Usually used to the advantage of the group in power. Any attitude, action, or practice – backed by institutional power – that subordinates people because of their sexual orientation.
heterosexual privilege
Those benefits derived automatically by being heterosexual that are denied to homosexuals and bisexuals. Also, the benefits homosexuals and bisexuals receive as a result of claiming heterosexual identity or denying homosexual or bisexual identity.
hir
A gender-neutral pronoun, used in place of him/her. Pronounced “here.” See also “ze.”
homophobia
The irrational fear or hatred of homosexuals, homosexuality, or any behavior or belief that does not conform to rigid sex role stereotypes. It is this fear that enforces sexism as well as heterosexism.
homosexual
A person primarily emotionally, physically, and/or sexually attracted to members of the same sex.
identity sphere
The idea that gender identities and expressions do not fit on a linear scale, but rather on a sphere that allows room for all expression without weighting any one expression as better than another.
intergender
A person whose gender identity is between genders or a combination of genders
institutional oppression
Arrangements of a society used to benefit one group at the expense of another through the use of language, media, education, religion, economics, etc.
internalized oppression
The process by which a member of an oppressed group comes to accept and live out the inaccurate stereotypes applied to the oppressed group.
lesbian
Term used to describe female-identified people attracted romantically, erotically, and/or emotionally to other female-identified people. The term lesbian is derived from the name of the Greek island of Lesbos and as such is sometimes considered a Eurocentric category that does not necessarily represent the identities of African-Americans and other non-European ethnic groups. This being said, individual female-identified people from diverse ethnic groups, including African-Americans, embrace the term ‘lesbian’ as an identity label.
LGBTQI
A common abbreviation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersexed community
oppression
The systematic subjugation of a group of people by another group with access to social power, the result of which benefits one group over the other and is maintained by social beliefs and practices.
prejudice
A conscious or unconscious negative belief about a whole group of people and its individual members.
queer
1. An umbrella term which embraces a matrix of sexual preferences, orientations, and habits of the not-exclusively- heterosexual-and-monogamous majority. Queer includes lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transpeople, intersex persons, the radical sex communities, and many other sexually transgressive (underworld) explorers. 2. This term is sometimes used as a sexual orientation label instead of ‘bisexual’ as a way of acknowledging that there are more than two genders to be attracted to, or as a way of stating a non-heterosexual orientation without having to state who they are attracted to. 3. A reclaimed word that was formerly used solely as a slur but that has been semantically overturned by members of the maligned group, who use it as a term of defiant pride. ‘Queer’ is an example of a word undergoing this process. For decades ‘queer’ was used solely as a derogatory adjective for gays and lesbians, but in the 1980s the term began to be used by gay and lesbian activists as a term of self-identification. Eventually, it came to be used as an umbrella term that included gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered people. Nevertheless, a sizable percentage of people to whom this term might apply still hold ‘queer’ to be a hateful insult, and its use by heterosexuals is often considered offensive. Similarly, other reclaimed words are usually offensive to the in-group when used by outsiders, so extreme caution must be taken concerning their use when one is not a member of the group.
sex
A medical term designating a certain physical combination of gonads, chromosomes, genitalia, secondary sex characteristics, and hormonal balances. Usually subdivided into “male” and “female,” causing some trouble for categorizing intersex bodies and those who otherwise fall in between those poles.
sex identity
How a person identifies physically: female, male, in between, beyond, or neither.
sexual orientation
The desire for intimate emotional and/or sexual relationships with people of the same gender/sex, another gender/sex, or multiple genders/sexes.
sexuality
A person’s exploration of sexual acts, sexual orientation, sexual pleasure, and desire.
stereotype
A preconceived or oversimplified generalization about an entire group of people without regard for their individual differences. Though often negative, can also be complimentary. Even positive stereotypes can have a negative impact, however, simply because they involve broad generalizations that ignore individual realities.
third gender
A gender-variant person whose gender identity is neither male nor female, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.
Broadly speaking, transgender people are individuals whose gender expression and/or gender identity differs from conventional expectations based on the physical sex they were born into. The word transgender is an umbrella term which is often used to describe a wide range of identities and experiences, including: FTMs, MTFs, cross-dressers, drag queens, drag kings, gender queers, and many more. Because transgender is an umbrella term, it is often thought to be an imprecise term that does not adequately describe the particulars of specific identities and experiences. (For example, the identity/experience of a post-operative FTM transsexual will probably be very different from that of a female-identified drag king who performs on weekends, but both are often lumped together under the term “transgender.”)
transactivism
The political and social movement to create equality for gender variant persons.
transgendered (Trans) Community
A loose category of people who transcend gender norms in a wide variety of ways. The central ethic of this community is unconditional acceptance of individual exercise of freedoms including gender and sexual identity and orientation.
transphobia
The irrational fear or hatred of those who are gender variant.
transsexual
An individual whose gender identity does not match the sex that was assigned to them at birth. Usually, transsexual people will seek hormonal and/or surgical treatment in order to bring their body into alignment with their gender identity. See also “gender identity” and “female-to-male transsexual.”
transvestite
A person who dresses in clothing generally identified with the opposite gender/sex. The preferred term in the U.S. is “cross-dresser.” See also “crossdresser.
transwoman
An identity label sometimes adopted by male-to-female transsexuals to signify that they are women while still affirming their history as males.
two-spirit
A term for some Native persons who have attributes of both genders, may have distinct gender and social roles in their tribes. The term ‘two-spirit’ is usually considered to specific to the Zuni tribe. Similar cross-gender and gender variant identity labels vary by group or nation.
ze
A gender-neutral pronoun, used in place of she/he. Pronounced “zee.”

Note on Queer and Transgender Ecology and Diversity Studies Sources
The queer theory and queer ecology studies sourced here focus on critical discussions about white masculinity in trans and non-binary spaces. Queer theory and queer ecology explore questions about the ways in which white masculinity impacts power dynamics within trans and non-binary spaces, and undermines inclusion, value, and belonging. Queer theory and queer ecology queers complex dynamics of power, privilege, and marginalization, dominionation, patriarchy (by men and women), and heteronormativity. Creating inclusive and equitable trans and non-binary culture happens by queering white masculine power dynamics.
