As attacks on trans people continue to escalate across the country, standing up for our rights is more important than ever. In this replay, Imara talks with two people who are fighting back in two states with some of the harshest anti-trans laws. First, she’s joined by the Executive Director of The Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT), Emmett Schelling, who discusses the importance of solidarity with other social justice movements, the challenges of organizing in Texas, and what keeps him motivated to continue the fight. Next, Imara interviews high school math teacher Katie Wood about why she sued the Florida Department of Education and her perspective on the ethical obligation to stand up for what’s right.
