Episode description

The Supreme Court is about to rule on whether states can ban transfeminine student athletes from playing on girls' and women's teams.

They come out of a massive wave of state-level anti-trans legislation that Imara says is part of a broader movement to undermine discrimination protections — by going after the small, vulnerable minority of trans girls.
