The photo is a 1974 photo of Leslie Feinberg, from the FBI file on hir. I've written a piece on my interpretation of Transgender Warriors and Trans Liberation, but I don't think it's quite polished enough, so I'll post it later. Instead, I'll go over hir FBI file: https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/dc-metro/rg-065/6282555/Batch0010/6282555_100-HQ-480756.PDF.
The FBI thought Feinberg could be violating the Communist Control Act, advocating the overthrow of the government, and engaging in rebellion. Needless to say, a hero to all of us. Feinberg was a member of the Workers World Party (the party still exists, but more notably PSL split from it), which apparently wasn't openly advocating for the overthrow of the U.S, they just think it's inevitable.
My favorite line? "captioned subject is believed to be a white female, who became male through some kind of sex change operation, and is possibly homosexual". Some interesting language choice, and it's an interesting snapshot into the evolution of Leslie's identity.
The FBI found Leslie's place of birth and birthdate from public school records. It's a bit of an interesting look into all of the many places the FBI can get their information, along with how information like that was so much more patchwork before the digital age.
"Interview of subject is not being recommended because of the questionable nature of his sexuality". Hmm, interesting.
It's interesting how their investigation spanned multiple cities, from Kansas City to NYC to Bufffalo to Boston. It probably involved quite a few officers, though I'm sure it wasn't the main focus for all of them.
There's some interesting mention about changes in Leslie's gender identity. Born a girl, for a time wearing a beard and mustache, then going back to "she". I'm sure we all know, Feinberg's gender didn't stop evolving there.
"Subject reportedly contributes all extra money to WWP", Leslie definitely was dedicated to the cause. Leslie doesn't attend NYC WWP meetings, but the FBI doesn't mention why.
The FBI isn't immune to typoes, Leslie did some "criminal terspass" that garnered some attention.They wasted some time checking if Leslie was in Boston, but verified where Leslie in NYC lived by pretending to be a part of the Voter Registration Commission.
There's a whole 43 pages of documents, all just from 1974-75. There's plenty of interesting tidbits in there, so maybe check it out.

hell yeahCW blanchard is evil
People tried to apply blanchard BS to me when I was first coming out and it really fucked me up in this department. I want to feel attractive and sexy when having sex or doing sex adjacent activites with someone, but my brain jumps in and automatically shuts it down. Years of actively eliminating any perception of myself as sexy for fear of people denying me my gender and transness really did a number on me and is so hard to recover from.spoiler misrepresenting myself When im talking to people or with people i blame my reactions on bottom dysphoria, which isnt entirely untrue, its just a rather small part of the picture. :::
speak not Transphobe Colonel Sanders' name!!!
I was lucky enough not to have any fuckers apply that shit directly to me and I still had a bit of deworming to do regarding it. Those people are fucking evil and a gulag is too good for that man. I hope you can recover fully from it someday, though.unlimited pain upon that fucker
Yeah, even through osmosis alone he has managed to infect a bunch of people, let alone through direct applicationSomeday, i will be free. Its getting better all the time (except for when its not lol). Never forgive, never forget, may he die a thousand deaths.

Oh christ that's fucked, your mother? What the hell... at least it seems to me like it's progressively becoming less and less known. Like most people I have to explain it to nowadays.But usually it's getting better!!! ✨
::: spoiler yea... Yeah, ive laid out for her why its fucked, plus its been a few years, and shes come around and is actually a pretty good ally now. It took her daughter coming out to make her critically think about her opinions and "facts". But yeah her reaction to me coming out shoved me right back into the closet for a while
spoiler
Oh wow so she changed for the better? While it's fucking awful you had to go through that, I'm glad to hear it turned out well eventually.spoiler
Yeah i was super surprised. Shes apologized for how she acted and reacted and what she said when i first came out. For like 3 years after that i was operating from the viewpoint that transition would cost me my family, and im so happy it didntspoiler
Fuck yeahcw discussion about suicide at the end
I'm sorry that happened to youI was also really skittish about the "finding myself sexy" thing, but thankfully the psychologist I talked to about it was like: "Isnt finding yourself sexy a good thing?" and yeah, it is.
She had a friend who was trans and was perhaps the best possible person for me to meet after my uhh
spoiler cw: suicide
suicide attempt and subsequent stay at the psychiatric ward

It absolutely is! Ive been getting there. Yesterday one of my my housemates partners has her own label/collective thing and she threw a concert in a local park that we went to, and i got myself kinda done up, and looking at myself i was just kinda like "ykw? Im attractive and sexy and just plain look good!". And when we got there some people were looking at me and it was just like "ykw? Theyre looking cause 1. Im hot, and 2. Im tall. In that order." so anyway yesterday was a good day for this aspect of deworming
Im glad you met them! I love it when people enter our lives at just the right time
, even if after such a difficult time
