What would Christopher Hitchens say to J.K. Rowling about her stance on trans issues? In this satirical reimagining, Hitchens’ unmistakable voice and wit are brought forward to deliver a scathing critique of Rowling’s descent into bigotry and her detachment from reality.
From his imagined vantage point, Hitchens dismantles the hollow arguments and culture-war posturing that underpin Rowling’s views, exposing the contradictions and fear-mongering at the heart of her rhetoric. In contrast, he champions the dignity, rights, and humanity of trans people, reminding us why he was always unflinching in the face of prejudice and cant.
Join us as we explore how one of the sharpest polemicists of modern times might respond to today’s battles over truth, freedom, and human rights.
