In 2024, we’ve talked to and learned from some of the region’s boundary pushing authors. One of them is local automotive journalist Victoria Scott. Victoria loves cars – as models of freedom, style, and engineering. She also thinks car culture doesn’t have to be so male-dominated.  Those two things drove her to write about and photograph trans women, nonbinary people, and their relationship to cars. Her book is We Deserve This.
