Episode 96: The Campaign to Erase Trans People from Public Life


Listen Later

This year alone, hundreds of bills have been introduced in state legislatures aimed at erasing trans people from public life. Christopher Wright Durocher speaks with Alejandra Caraballo and Mary Kelly Persyn about this "legislative terror campaign," the devastating consequences of it, and how the legal community can fight in solidarity with the trans community in support of trans rights, dignity, and safety.
