Under The Arch

One of the most salient political issues of this moment is the sustained attack on queer and trans rights. Across the nation, conservative legislatures have coordinated and implemented dangerous policies such as bans on gender-affirming healthcare, youth sports participation, and more. Our hosts speak with Shira Berkowitz, PROMO’s Senior Director of Public Policy and Advocacy. Shira leads statewide strategy for LGBTQ+ public policy, organizing, and advocacy, and is a founder of Camp Indigo Point — the first local residential summer camp for trans, gender expansive, and LGBTQ+ youth. Shira speaks to the cultural shifts that allowed trans-hate to become popularized, how anti-trans legislation became a priority for conservative politicians, and the devastating impact on trans youth and their families. As always, our guest leaves us with steps we can take to support the fight for trans rights and dignity.Learn more about PROMO: www.promoonline.orgLearn more about Camp Indigo Point: www.campindigopoint.orgJoin the
