ACLU Supporter, the wave of anti-trans bills that cropped up across the states this year – especially attacking trans youth's rights to play sports and access health care – is a stark reminder:

Transgender people have always been here and have always belonged. But unfortunately, transphobia has a long history, too.

That's why the ACLU is breaking that history down (spoiler: it involves Nazis) and bringing today's assaults into perspective – to make sure all of us are equipped with the facts as we continue to fight for trans rights in this critical moment.

It's part of our newest video series, Let's Connect. Watch this quick, but informative 7-minute episode today.

Thanks,

The ACLU Team
