June 1 at 10:00 am, 3845 North Swan Street – "Transgender Issues"
Susan Golightly will talk about the fears and struggles transgender people are facing under the current administration. More than 850 bills have been introduced across the country's cities, counties, states, and federal legislatures in the last year to curtail, impact and to attempt to erase transgender people. Many more legislative bills are expected as our current administration wages a war of annihilation of transgender people.
"I will cover transgender topics such as where do transgender people come from, how long have they existed, transgender care for children and adults, transgender people in sports i.e., is there an advantage, how many are we talking about, etc." Golightly said.
"There will be time for questions. I like to say, "there are no dumb questions." She added.
