Christine Johnson<p>"Unlike our opponents, we don’t believe that love and care is finite.</p><p>We don’t believe that trans people are only allowed to exist when they poll well. We don’t believe that there’s a binary choice between supporting broke American citizens and immigrants. We don’t believe that feminism is an attack on men, or that anti-racism is an attack on white people. We don’t believe that justice and peace for Palestine is mutually exclusive with protecting Jewish communities from antisemitism. We don’t believe in either implicit or explicit eugenics for our disabled neighbors. We don’t believe that only some of us deserve healthcare or childcare or a decent education or healthy air or communities free from violence. We merely believe that we all deserve a country that loves us for once. We believe that there is enough to go around, but only if we choose it."</p><p><a href="https://thewhitepages.net/p/there-are-two-political-movements" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">thewhitepages.net/p/there-are-</span><span class="invisible">two-political-movements</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/TransRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TransRights</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Newsom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Newsom</span></a></p>

However, under the Trump administration, the commission has moved to dismiss its claims in this case, as well as other workplace discrimination cases filed on behalf of transgender employees across the nation, though the ACLU notes the Supreme Court has deemed employment discrimination against transgender people a violation of federal law."</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/ACLU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ACLU</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Michigan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Michigan</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/EEOC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EEOC</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/GenderIdeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GenderIdeology</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/EmploymentDiscrimination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmploymentDiscrimination</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/AcceptanceMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AcceptanceMatters</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Transgender</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TransgenderRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TransgenderRights</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Transrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Transrights</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TransgenderDiscrimination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TransgenderDiscrimination</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TransgenderAwareness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TransgenderAwareness</span></a> <br><a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBT</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBTQIAPlus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQIAPlus</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ThePoliticsOfHate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThePoliticsOfHate</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Discrimination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Discrimination</span></a> </p><p>URL for article because thumbnail is not displaying:<br><a href="https://michiganadvance.com/2025/03/06/aclu-of-michigan-aims-to-intervene-after-trump-admin-drops-transgender-discrimination-case/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">michiganadvance.com/2025/03/06</span><span class="invisible">/aclu-of-michigan-aims-to-intervene-after-trump-admin-drops-transgender-discrimination-case/</span></a></p>

Flipboard Culture Desk<p>A common conservative trope — and "justification" for anti-trans behavior and lawmaking — is the idea that cis-men will pretend they're trans in order to sneak into women's locker rooms. So trans filmmaker Siobhan McCarthy made it the premise of their movie, "She's the He." The Amanda Bynes comedy "She's the Man" had spoken to them deeply as a teenager and sparked a conversation with friend and co-editor Will Geare about trans stories they wished they'd seen when they were younger. “I made a joke about, what if we took that conservative fear of [trans people] going into the bathrooms and we really played that out?” McCarthy told <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@Variety" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Variety</span></a></span>.
