    great job!!! one step closer to educating people on the lgbt community about things that the other society are closed minded of knowing. getting them to see from a different perspective of the rainbow.

    The power of reasoned conversation! He explained what the law stands for and she listened and took the information and digested it. And then reasoned through CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS that she no longer was opposed to the law.

    Is the full video available anywhere? We're implementing MI training in our local DSA chapter, and having clip-able example videos like this is SO useful

      Are you still interested in learning deep canvassing? I'm in MI right now working on a statewide deep canvassing project in 12 communities across the state.

    I love this. Sometimes people just need things broken down to them so they can see the bigger picture.

    wow! Great interview. Sometimes all it takes is sharing a common experience & then stating the obvious: freedom to be ourselves is a is bone deep need.

    I'm not convinced. Biology trumps feelings.

      And maybe you never will be. There’s nothing new under the sun and people don’t change. Those who want to be rude will be rude, and those who want to be polite will be polite, and there’s always gonna be people on the fence and in between. I think if we can just not beat each other up or kill each other we’re doing great at this point. Some people can’t even pass that bar.

      ​@@dburgessnotburgerI'm not so convinced it isn't biological anyway. When you have a baby boy with a botched circumcision reassigned female by the doctors still intuitively feel they "should've been born a boy," when you see the same pattern emerges in many intersex births that were similarly reassigned for social conformity, when you see brain studies mapping subtle differences in brain structure between the sexes discover that those that identify as trans have brain structures either consistent with the gender they identify as, or in between the one they ID with and the one that their biology would have you assume... Idk it starts sounding like it very much may be far less like something in the realm of sociology and/or psychology and more like a kind of biologically intersex condition itself.
      In any case it all strikes me as a moot point anyway. Even if that's all wrong transgender individuals are under no delusion of what their biology is, and we flippantly gender inanimate objects all the time. It costs me nothing to linguistically gender a human differently from what a simplistic understanding of that person's biology assumes, but if that someone is one very close to me especially, statistically it could cost *everything* if I continually refuse to respect it. It's easy to say "biology trumps feelings" I guess, when you're going off the basic ideas we were all taught and assuming it's "just some weird phase" or whatever, but we don't really have that much of a trend of angsty goth teens hanging themselves just because Mom and Pop wouldn't let them keep wearing black makeup and dying their hair black and stuff do we? Whatever it is it's far more and far deeper than a phase, and all statistics point towards affirmation saying lives whereas denial and forced conversion therapy... Well it does the opposite. For me that's all I need to know, even if someone's transition may confuse me or make me uncomfortable, because a human life trumps *my* feelings any day.

      I have a biology degree. Gender and sex are not the same. Perhaps if you read about that you might have a different view? :)
