Violence at a school board meeting is heartbreaking for a transgender woman and her mother.
GLENDALE, Calif. --
"Things have gotten worse. So, there's more of a need than ever for the work that we're doing because there's so much misinformation out there. There's so much misunderstanding. I watched some of the school board meeting last night, it was incredibly upsetting to watch and hear people spreading such lies," stated Transgender School co-founder Bridget.
"We get a lot of people who send terrible things to us. But that doesn't matter to me," co-founder Jackie said. "What matters is the person who has been in the closet their whole life and listened to our podcast for the last six months. That was the thing that pushed them over the edge and gave them the strength to come out."
