Digital Transgender Archive
Sage discusses their growing up in a conservative evangelical Christian family in the Appalachia Mountains of Virginia, breaking from their family's religion through encountering children's and young adult fantasy novels, and becoming a non-binary librarian today. Sage reflects extensively on their religious trajectory, leading to their polytheistic and goddess-centered paganism today. Sage also discusses their politicization through early 2000s Tumblr social justice communities.
