Everyday Trans Activism

Mandy Giles of Parents of Trans Youth talks with remarkable individuals working for transgender rights and equality so we can be inspired in our own advocacy. The show amplifies trans voices and centers the trans experience, featuring people who work in their own ways with their own skills and passions.

Whether it’s about fighting anti-trans legislation, accessing healthcare and mental health support, workplace issues, or protecting transgender kids, these conversations will open your eyes to the critical work being done within and for the transgender community.

Anyone can become a trans activist!
