At a moment in which transgender youth are under attack like never before in Alabama and nationwide, we must all stand together to defeat these harmful, discriminatory bills: The bill we see here in Alabama is a very dangerous and cruel effort to bar transgender children from some important aspects of school life." GLSEN's Executive Director, Eliza Byard
GLSEN National Student Council member JP Grant advocates for other trans athletes by working to help educate people through media. For Grant, it means putting human faces to the issue, showing people that denying kids the option to compete is not just unfair, but inhumane. Do people realize the pain and suffering that people really have to go through just to do what they do every day? he wonders. Getting on a team as a man, with all cis men as football playerthat’s intimidating. I don’t know if people realize that.
