Hi all!

I’m Shash Appan! This is my personal website!

I’m an Indian trans woman who happens to be good at talking to people about trans and race and especially on how that intersects! I also talk about my experiences in navigating society as a disabled, trans and brown and how that informs my politics and work I do. I am a director of Trans Safety Network where we publish articles on transphobia and transphobic groups to better equip our community and inform the public. I’m a co-founder of and was a part of Trans Aid Cymru and left in Sept 2024.
