YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLive-streamed on February 13, 2025
Katelyn Burns, co-owner of The FlyTrap, columnist at MSNBC & Xtra Magazine, co-host of the Cancel Me Daddy podcast, discusses the Trump administration’s actions against the trans community.
Katelyn Burns then joins, diving right into the devastating moment of confusion and fear facing trans people in the US in the wake of myriad executive orders from Trump targeting everything from access to gender-affirming care to gender markers on federal IDs, zeroing in on the latter as she and Emma unpack how passports have served (since the Obama Administration) as a central safety line for trans people in red states, not only allowing them freedom of movement in line with their identity but providing security against employment discrimination and more. After expanding on the role of unions in bolstering protections for their trans workers (particularly in the realm of healthcare) and the genuinely dangerous implications of Trump’s executive order on the ability of the government to find and help missing trans children, Burns looks to the role of mainstream liberal media – with a specific focus on the New York Times – in taking vitriolic anti-trans bigotry from fringe to mainstream, legitimizing all of the policies that they decry as inhumane now that they’re coming from Trump, wrapping up with the emphasis that the movement for trans rights has not been radicalizing – with their asks the same today as they were half a century ago – but rather the backlash to them has.
