Milo Stewart

Milo Stewart gained a following on their YouTube channel around age seventeen because they told stories about living as a nonbinary person, and that gained the attention of conservative media. Taking this reaction as a sign that their story was having an impact by challenging cisnormativity, Milo happily reclaimed the label "Social Justice Warrior" (SJW) and pursued an interest in social justice in their career.

They received a degree in peace, justice, and conflict studies from DePaul University and are receiving a master's degree in refugee and forced migration studies. They are pursuing a career working with LGBT+ displaced people, and Milo has funneled their academic interests into YouTube, where they integrate reflections on their experiences with gender and sexuality.

They believe in increasing access to trans and queer theory outside of academia, sharing stories of queer experiences that LGBT+ viewers don't get to see elsewhere in media and building community for LGBT+ people of all backgrounds. Milo has had academic writings published in DePaul's undergraduate journal Creating Knowledge and presented a paper at the Neuchâtel Graduate Conference 2021 on migration and mobility Studies.
