We’re talking about attacks on trans athletes on the latest episode of LGBTQ Nation’s podcast

The latest episode of the LGBTQ Nation podcast has arrived and we’re talking about a spate of state bills targeting trans student athletes. What’s motivating them? And how are they being justified?

In this week’s episode, host Alex Berg examines over 30 dangerous anti-trans bills and, more specifically, the bills’ impact on athletics. Alex speaks with her guests, Imara Jones, the creator of Trans Lash Media, and Chris Mosier, a 6-time member of Team USA and trans athlete, about the work they’re doing in response to these bills, misinformation about trans people in sports, and how listeners can respond to these bills that are actively marginalizing trans people.
