Justice Ren\\xe9e, born trans-female, was raised in a Fundamentalist Evangelical Home. Her father was a leader in the Young Earth/Creation Science movement in Utah and surrounding states through the 1980s and 90s. She was taught through shame to hate her trans identity.\\xa0

In her preteens, Justice dedicated her life to Jesus and began ministry work with her church, AWANA, and CEF and gave her first evangelistic message at 13.\\xa0

She went on to get Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies with a Missions Emphasis from Frontier School of the Bible, was Youth Pastor in Nebraska, worked at Christian Camps, and a CrossWorld Missions Candidate preparing for missions in Thailand.\\xa0

In 2009, responding to the Housing Crisis, she founded \\u201cTears of the Patriots\\u201d, a Tea Party Group connected with Libertarian and Christian Nationalism. Due to a myriad of reasons, Justice Ren\\xe9e re-examined her belief system over a period of 7 years ending with leaving the church. She opened to her partner about her gender issues in 2019 and transitioned in 2020.\\xa0

Currently, Justice Ren\\xe9e works as a Systems Engineer at Target, helps amplify diverse voices through Secular North Productions, and raises her two kids with her partner in a co-housing community. She shares her story with others to give hope and move communities forward through the \\u201cDin of Conversation\\u201d. She found freedom in acceptance and a path forward from the hate.\\xa0

Stepping out from behind the camera, Justice Ren\\xe9e has begun opening up in a more public way to build connections with others and amplify the "Din of Conversation".
