Supreme Court Sets Dangerous Precedent on Conversion Therapy

On March 31st of this year, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a therapist in Colorado who argued that the state’s ban on conversion therapy violated her freedom of speech. While the ruling does not endorse conversion therapy, it does allow the practice to continue, despite the fact that conversion therapy has been widely debunked as pseudoscience and dramatically increases the risk of depression and suicide in queer and trans youth. To understand the ruling and its impact, we hear from Mother Jones reporter Madison Pauly, who has been following the insidious rise of anti-trans conversion therapy, and Shannon Minter, the Legal Director of the National Center for LGBTQ Rights, who has been at the forefront of the legal battles for queer and trans rights for decades. This week’s Trans Joy features River King, a registered nurse at a queer community clinic in Brooklyn, NY.

Understanding the Iran War with MS NOW’s Ayman Mohyeldin: Part 1

What’s really happening in the Iran war…and why does it feel like we’ve seen this before? After a little over a month of war, a fragile ceasefire is now in place between the United States, Iran, and Israel. But the question isn’t just what happens next; it’s whether we’re repeating the same mistakes that led us here in the first place. In this two-part series, Imara Jones sits down with MS NOW’s Ayman Mohyeldin to break down the history, politics, and power dynamics between Iran and the United States. If you’ve been trying to make sense of the Iran war, the ceasefire, and the risk of a wider regional conflict, this conversation gives you the context you’re not hearing anywhere else. This week’s Trans Joy features Addye Susnick, an organizer, zine artist, and PhD candidate in political theory at the University of British Columbia.

EEOC Walks Back Protections for Trans Workers

This week on the show, Montana blocks an anti-trans ID policy thanks to an unusual provision in its constitution. Then, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) reverses its decade-old stance that protected federal workers from discrimination on the basis of gender identity. And finally, FBI Director Kash Patel requests 166 million dollars from Congress to expand their attacks on what they are calling “extremism on migration, race and gender” or who oppose “traditional American views on family, religion and morality,” which is just another example of this administration's animosity towards trans Americans.

Blue States Retreat on Trans Youth Health Care

Since the start of 2026, a string of hospital networks in blue states that legally mandate gender affirming care for trans youth have abruptly ended these programs, leaving thousands of kids and their families in the lurch. What’s worse, more proposed rules from the Department of Health & Human Services could spell the end of gender-affirming care for all trans people, including adults. This week, Imara speaks with Jennifer Levi, Senior Director of Transgender and Queer Rights at GLAD Law about the legal implications. Then, Imara is joined by Kei Williams, Executive Director of New Pride Agenda in New York, to share how activists can push back and resist these new restrictions. This week’s Trans Joy features Cal Hansen, a trans masc parent and community organizer based in South Minneapolis. They are an EMT and practitioner of Eastern Medicine whose work centers direct action, mutual aid, and accessible community care.

Pauli Murray is Black History

Happy Black History Month! This week Imara gives some extra love to a queer trailblazer that not too many are familiar with – Pauli Murray – a gender nonconforming attorney, theologist and civil rights activist. Their legal work led to the eventual recognition of sex discrimination under the US Constitution. First, Imara speaks with Professor Brittney Cooper about how Murray’s life and work fits into the larger narrative of public Black intellectuals. Then, Imara sits down with Angela T. Mason, Executive Director of the Pauli Murray Center For History and Social Justice who shares how future generations can continue to honor Murray’s legacy. In this week's moment of Trans Joy, DJ and sound designer Jazmine T Green tells us about mixing music for a trans dance party.
