Celebrating Trans Love

In this week’s episode, we’re bringing back some conversations from the archives about trans love. Imara chats with Wilson and Miss B Haven of North Carolina about their work in journalism and drag (respectively) and building community in Durham. Then, Imara chats with couple Arthur and Harry about transitioning, dating and challenging assumptions about who occupies gay male spaces. Plus they give some advice to cis gay men who might be dating a trans man for the first time. And for this week’s Trans Joy segment, we celebrate listeners who told us what they love about their trans partners.

Where Does Gender Identity Fit in American Football

The Super Bowl (or should we say the Bad Bunny halftime show, featuring football) is coming up this weekend. While there aren’t any openly trans people participating in the competition, Imara chats with this week’s guest about where trans people fit into one of America’s most popular sports, especially since it has long been a space dominated by hyper masculinity. First, Imara chats with Justine Lindsay, a former cheerleader who made history as the first openly trans person to cheer in the NFL. Then, Karleigh Webb, an LGBTQ sports writer and recreational football player shares what roles gender and gender identity play in football and how we might think about them in the future.

The Future of Trans Sports with Chris Mosier

The issue of trans participation in sports continues to be a major political talking point on the right. Congress has pending legislation that would restrict trans people’s ability to play sports, and hundreds of similar bills have already been introduced this year at the state-level. This week, Imara chats with Chris Mosier, a trailblazing trans athlete who made history and has just contributed to a new book called Fair Game, which debunks the core made-up-ideas about trans people in sports. Fair Game: Trans Athletes and The Future Of Sports is available on January 27th.

Dirty Bathroom Bills Proliferate

Anti-trans legislation is on the rise around the country. This week, Imara tackles the new anti-trans bathroom bill (SB244) that passed in Kansas. State Representative Abi Boatman shares powerful words to her fellow legislators about the bill's negative impact. Then, because US Senator Josh Hawley can’t resist using his platform to decry “gender ideology,” Imara discusses the latest attacks directed towards the CEO of Netflix during a recent congressional merger hearing. Meanwhile, Indiana advances a bill (SB182) that would bar trans people from updating their birth certificates which could set off a myriad of bureaucratic hurdles in addition to latent discrimination.

SCOTUS Hears Trans Sports Arguments

The Supreme Court heard two landmark cases this week, Hecox v. Little and West Virginia v. BPJ. These two cases are bundled together to decide the same question: whether trans girls can have equal access to public school sports. Imara was inside the courtroom to witness the intense legal discussions. Today’s episode breaks down what could happen when the Court rules later this summer, and the far-reaching consequences the rulings could have for bodily autonomy. First, she speaks with Sasha Buchert, a senior attorney at Lambda Legal who helped with both of these cases. Then, she sits down with Andraya Yearwood, a former student athlete who was targeted by anti-trans groups in 2018.

Anti-Trans Sports Bans Head to SCOTUS with Chase Strangio

The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments in two pivotal cases about whether the government can discriminate against trans women and girls in athletics. Imara sits down with Supreme Court veteran and civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio, unpacking the strategy being used to challenge state laws than ban trans girls from playing sports. In this necessary conversation exploring what’s at stake in Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.J.P., the pair unpack how the right-wing actors taking aim at trans girls actually have their sights set on a much bigger target: the Equal Protection Clause and, ultimately, democracy itself.

Trans Day of Remembrance in an Era of Political Violence

On Trans Day of Remembrance, we honor the trans people who have had their lives cut short by violence. Imara speaks with notable changemaker in the trans rights movement Kylar Broadus. Kylar was the first out transgender American to testify before the United States Senate and has been honored for his legal work by the City of New York and the LGBT Bar Association of Los Angeles, among others. Together, they process what it means to commemorate this day during an era of heightened anti-trans rhetoric, attacks on healthcare and all out political assault. Kylar shares how he came to practice law while advocating for civil rights and reflects on the importance of multigenerational community. For Trans Awareness week, TransLash Media is celebrating trans brilliance across generations with a new zine: Transcestors & Trailblazers: 30 Lives, 30 Legacies.

Nationwide Crack Down on Homelessness Leaves Trans People Vulnerable

Trans people are more likely to experience homelessness than others. Which means trans folks are impacted at a higher rate by new federal policies that target people living in precarious housing situations. In this episode, Imara speaks with Dr. Dilara Yarbrough, an Associate Professor of Criminal Justice Studies at San Francisco State University, who helps unpack Trump’s recent crackdown on homeless encampments in D.C. and the larger systems at play. Then, Atlanta organizer Jamie Roberts shares how her group works to address the needs of trans people in the South and what has to happen to end homelessness overall.
