Schools have been ground zero for the culture wars these days. Beside the right wing freak out over Critical Race Theory in classrooms, the conservative obsession with trans students participating in sports or using the bathroom is the biggest pillar of the right’s propaganda.
As our guest RB Butcher said, one of the most devastating parts of these kinds of anti-trans legislation is the fact that these will disproportionately burden low income families. Rich trans students will likely always be able to access the resources they need, but poor students rely on the social services, resources, and opportunities that are being made illegal for them to participate in.
RB Butcher is standup comic, actor, and writer seen on Adam Ruins Everything, Take My Wife, Good Trouble, Ellen, HBO, Comedy Central and Conan. Follow them on Twitter here
