“Your Body Is A Battleground” proclaimed the famous poster by Barbara Kruger in 1989. Well, that could be the tagline for lawyer and trans rights activist, Chase Strangio. He has been fighting -- body and soul -- for close to two decades to change laws and policies literally made to institutionalize discrimination and violence against trans bodies.

We are not there yet, but we are starting to see it far off on the horizon.
