This year alone, hundreds of bills have been introduced in state legislatures aimed at erasing trans people from public life. Christopher Wright Durocher speaks with Alejandra Caraballo and Mary Kelly Persyn about this "legislative terror campaign," the devastating consequences of it, and how the legal community can fight in solidarity with the trans community in support of trans rights, dignity, and safety.  Join the Progressive Legal Movement Today: ACSLaw.org Today's Host: Christopher Wright Durocher, ACS VP of Policy and Program Guest: Alejandra Caraballo, Clinical Instructor, Harvard Law School Guest: Mary Kelly Persyn, Founder and Principal, Persyn Law & Policy Link: LGBTQ+ Legislative Tracker Link: "Extradition Post Roe," by Alejandra Caraballo, et al Link: "We Are All Transgender Now: On Resisting Tyranny," by Mary Kelly Persyn Link: The National Child Traumatic Stress Network Visit the Podcast Website: Broken Law Podcast Email the Show: Podcast@ACSLaw.org Follow ACS on Social Media: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube ----------------- Production House: Flint Stone Media Copyright of American Constitution Society 2023.

Ever feel like the law is stacked against you? It probably is. Broken Law speaks truth to power in discussing how our laws and legal system serve the few at the expense of the many. This is where law meets real life. Hosted by the staff of the American Constitution Society, we reckon with the origins of our legal system, interview people on the frontlines of the progressive legal movement, and chat about necessary legal reforms to restore our democratic legitimacy and improve the lives of all people.
