Introduction
Part 1: Revolutionizing Community
Milo
Stewart gained a following on their YouTube channel around age
17
because they told stories about living as a nonbinary person, and
that gained
the attention of conservative media. Taking this reaction as a sign
that their
story was having an impact by challenging cisnormativity, Milo
happily
reclaimed the label “Social Justice Warrior” (SJW) and pursued an
interest in
social justice in their career.
They received a
degree in Peace, Justice and Conflict Studies from DePaul
University and are
receiving a master’s degree in Refugee and Forced Migration
studies. They are
pursuing a career working with LGBT+ displaced people, and Milo has
funneled
their academic interests into YouTube, where they integrate
reflections on
their experiences with gender and sexuality.
They
believe in increasing access to trans and queer theory outside of
academia,
sharing stories of queer experiences that LGBT+ viewers don’t get
to see
elsewhere in media and building community for LGBT+ people of all
backgrounds.
Milo has had academic writings published in DePaul’s undergraduate
journal
Creating Knowledge and will be presenting a paper at the Neuchâtel
Graduate
Conference 2021 on Migration and Mobility Studies.
