In 2015, the Supreme Court made marriage equality the law of the land. One year later, LGBT rights are still being challenged in places like North Carolina. This episode tells the story of the state-by-state fight over non-discrimination laws—and how bathroom bills became one way to stop them from being passed.

Guests: Howie, an RA, activist and trans student at UNC Charlotte; North Carolina Values Coalition Executive Director Tami Fitzgerald; and BuzzFeed News LGBT reporter Dominic Holden.
