Don’t Think of the Children
Alex talks to special guest and friend of the show Sydney Anderson about the anti-trans legislation across the United States.
Hey pals, Alex here! I had the immense privilege of interviewing queer educator and friend of the show Sydney Anderson . I just wanted to give you a heads-up that this was recorded before (the multiple mass shootings in the US AND) the leak revealing the Supreme Court will most likely overturn Roe V. Wade, which will criminalize abortion and take away the rights and bodily autonomy of people across the US. Lucky for us, Sydney provides some much needed levity while discussing the anti-trans legislation being passed around the country. It’s teachers like them that make me hopeful.
