The War on Transgender Rights with Kate Sosin and Orion Rummler

Since 2021, at least 177 anti-trans bills have become law across the country. In an effort to understand this trend and its implications, The 19th News published a six part series about trans rights. Today, Errin sits down with The 19th’s LGBTQ+ reporters – Kate Sosin and Orion Rummler – to talk about their reporting for this series and what’s at stake for all of us, not just trans folks, in this upcoming election. Follow the Kate and Orion on Instagram at @katesosin and @i_oriionFollow The 19th on Instagram, Facebook, X and via our newsletters. Follow Errin Haines on Instagram @emarvelous and X @errinhaines.Follow Wonder Media Network on Instagram @wmn.media, X @wmnmedia, and Facebook.  Hosted on Acast.

This election year, our democracy hangs in the balance. We need news coverage that cuts past punditry and gives a voice to the new electorate – the marginalized folks that depend on a functioning democracy. Enter: The Amendment, a new podcast about gender, politics and power from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines. Each week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country – and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America’s most pressing political conversations – and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy.  Hosted on Acast.
