When Texas Went After Transgender Care, Part 1

In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in the number of younger Americans who identify as transgender and are seeking medical intervention to support their transition.

This increase has coincided with laws introduced in Republican State Houses across the country that seek to block trans youth from accessing gender-affirming care. Nowhere is the political battle more polarized and heated than in Texas.

In the first of two episodes on the situation in Texas, we explore the story of one family seeking such care for their son when the political storm hit.

Guest: Azeen Ghorayshi, a reporter covering the intersection between sex, gender and science for The New York Times.
