I Am J

I Am J Open the full-size image
A powerful and inspiring story about a transgender teen’s struggle to find his own path — and love his true self.

J had always felt different. He was certain that eventually everyone would understand who he really was: a boy mistakenly born as a girl. Yet as he grew up, his body began to betray him; eventually J stopped praying to wake up a “real boy” and started covering up his body, keeping himself invisible — from his parents, from his friends, from the world. But after being deserted by the best friend he thought would always be by his side, J decides that he’s done hiding. It’s time to be who he really is. And this time he is determined not to give up, no matter the cost.
