This is the podcast of Gender Justice. We fight for Gender Equity by dismantling barriers and expanding protections so that all people can thrive regardless of their gender, gender expression, and sexual orientation. We work for: economic justice, reproductive freedom and justice, freedom from gender based violence, and for trans & LGBQ liberation at work, in public, in school, in healthcare, and more. We are facing a historic opportunity to make real change in Minnesota with the first pro-reproductive freedom state legislature. Join us - and stand up to fight for our rights.
