Evan Minton on American anti-trans animus and the Trans Day of Visibility

A lot is happening right now in Sacramento regarding trans rights, and not in a good way.

On Friday, March 10, a group run by far-right Canadian Jordan Peterson and Chloe Cole is holding a "detransition" rally alongside the California Republican Convention.

In response, Sacramento residents will be showing up to let them know that anti-trans folks are not welcome in our streets.

And on Tuesday, March 14, UC-Davis will be hosting Charlie Kirk, the far-right founder of Tea Party USA who recently said of the trans community that "someone should have just took care of it the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s."

Chancellor Gary May believes Kirk should be allowed to speak on campus on First Amendment grounds. Others disagree.

We're talking with friend of the show Evan Minton on these concerning local events, and on what Sacramentans can expect later this month on the Trans Day of Awareness.
