In response to transphobic comments by Alice Cooper and Carlos Santana, culture expert Niko Stratis writes for Paste about how trans people are "always the topic, never the voice." "I am not surprised that Santana doesn’t like trans people because I am rarely surprised by such facts anymore," she says. "There is no easier path to a headline than making baseless comments about trans people into whatever microphone will have you."
