World Pride Day is celebrated on the 28th of June, but, here in Spain, a lot of the celebrations actually take place during the month of July instead. Within Spain's Pride period (out of sync with the rest of the world) here at the English Language Broadcast we're going to talk about LGBT rights and initiatives here in Spain. Starting by revisiting one of the more recent achievements in LGBT+ rights in Spain, 'la Ley Trans' (the Trans Law). This is a law that came into force in Spain over a year ago, and that caused — and continues to cause — quite the stir, with some political parties within Spain still making attempts to repeal it.

We check in with the law over a year later alongside Oscar Rodríguez, of Spain's main LGBT organizations, the FEDLGTBI+ (La Federación Estatal de Lesbianas, Gays, Trans, Bisexuales, Intersexuales y más).
