Maria Hinojosa is joined by two trailblazers in the fight for trans rights: Chase Strangio, co-director of the ACLU’s LGBT and HIV Project, and Raquel Willis, journalist and co-founder of the Gender Liberation Movement. Chase recently made history as the first openly trans attorney to argue before the Supreme Court, challenging Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for minors. Raquel was recently arrested after staging a sit-in in a Capitol Hill bathroom to protest a bill aimed at banning trans people from using bathrooms that align with their gender identity. Together, they discuss the fight for trans rights in the face of escalating attacks by the right, the powerful history of trans resistance, and what a future of gender liberation could look like.
