Trans men Ty and Landon celebrate Pride with parents on "Our America"


On this week's episode of Our America on the OWN Channel, Lisa Ling revisits Ty and Landon - two transgender men - three years after documenting their journey from female to male.

In the episode, Ty recalls the first time he attended a gay pride parade. “Maybe one day my family will come to this,” he said.

Kim struggled with the loss of her daughter, Tanya, as she transitioned into Ty. Now, at the San Francisco Pride Parade, Kim tells her son how happy she is for him and how his journey inspired her to change her life for the better:

“You’ve always known who you are and who you wanted to be. And just in the last three years, the man that you have become, that’s why I’ve quit my job and gone back to school. You have inspired me so much.”
