She says we have to pereevere and fight for acceptance for trans people to make it easier for future generations. Isis also talks about being discovered by America's Next Top Model while living in a shelter, the media's learning curve in covering trans people, getting into acting, struggling to gain weight, and her love of Storm from X-Men.
