Shownotes

In this episode of the Parent Advocate, Lizette and Stephen interview queer advocate and educator Kate Okeson, who shares her path from community organizing to spearheading New Jersey's 2019 LGBTQ-inclusive curriculum law, emphasizing the vital role of intersectional advocacy. In Today’s Topics, we talk defiant Trans flags at the Stonewall Monument, the harms from the recent SCOTUS Skrmetti decision, and the survey of over 90,000 trans people establishing that trans people are happier when they receive gender affirming care. In Allies & Assholes, we celebrate out gay USTA Chairman Brian Vahaly, and drag Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
