Fluid Identities

The fifth episode of Outliers addresses issues of identity and how people at the edges of society define themselves. Starting in Mexico City, we meet Lord Fer, a goth and a club DJ who runs a cage fighting school, focused on teaching men and women with alternative lifestyles the skills to defend themselves in a society that is often hostile towards them. In London, England we meet women reclaiming witchcraft as a feminist ideal, in an inclusive, empowering way who are creating new identities for themselves; in business, in the home, and in society. And in Mumbai, in India the world's oldest transgender community describes how its sense of identity and unity have helped it overcome prejudice in a powerful story of defiance and hope.
