Description
The Joss Green Papers
include fliers, programs, awards, photos, speeches, student publications, artifacts, class
syllabi, personal drawings, notes, and materials related to queer and trans education and
advocacy from his undergraduate time at Scripps (2008-2011). Also, inluded are programming
from on-campus allyship workshops attended and facilitated by Greene. As a transgender man
attending Scripps College in the early 2010s, Greene's papers record a LGBTQIA+ history of
Scripps and the Claremont Colleges, centered on campus activism and education. The
collection highlights a greater political movement for queer and trans liberation, with
material related to the protest against CA Prop 8 (a 2008 California constitutional
amendment to ban marriage equality), a petition to include a Queer Studies major at Scripps
College, and art advocating for gender-neutral bathrooms on campus.
