Rights This WayTrans Athletes, Trump, and the Right to Play SportsSome of us might think that the fight for trans people’s right to play sports is new. But a recent book, “The Other Olympians: Fascism, Queerness, and the Making of Modern Sports” delves into the history of this debate that has lasted the better part of a century at least.Now the Trump administration is threatening states with funding cuts and other sanctions if they allow trans people to play sports on teams that align with their gender identity. It’s just one element of Trump’s full-scale war on trans people’s existence. But as we’ll hea...2025-05-0833 min
Rights This WayWhat are the Stakes of Mahmoud Khalil’s Case?The Trump administration has made clear that if you dare to disagree with the president, you will be punished.

He was separated from his wife, an American citizen, who is nine months pregnant, and shipped from New York to New Jersey and then to Louisiana.

A person suffering from serious mental health problems is accused of a heinous and tragic crime committed against a stranger.
