Anti-Trans Legislation

Anti-Trans Legislation

Elle talks about the spat of anti-trans legislation proposed by state legislators in 2023, and the ways in which trans identities are being politicized by far right extremists for votes. She reflects on her own emotional reactions related to these events, and how she has chosen to cope with them in the meantime. Elle closes with a word of encouragement about where we find ourselves as a trans community.

Elle references the following resources in this episode:
