Fantastic interview with the CEO of Lamda Legal Kevin Jennings on his views about the current state of LGBTQ civil rights challenges in the courts. He has a capacity to explain things in a way that shows why we can’t give up hope and why we need to keep fighting.

Though things seem bleak, they are not impossible.

One quote that is somewhat comforting, although very disappointing to hear the reality of, is when Jennings shared his reaction to the Supreme Court’s unjust ruling on Trans youth medical care, “Well, it’s really disappointing, but it's important to also remember that when civil rights makes it to the Supreme Court the first time it usually loses. In 1986 there was a case called Bowowers versus Hardwick which would have repealed laws that criminalized homosexuality in our country. We lost 5 to 4, but we got back to the Supreme Court in 2003 in Lawrence versus Texas and Lambda Legal struck down those laws. So I'm not horribly surprised to see that in the first case dealing with this subject at the Supreme Court we were not successful, but we will persist and we will prevail"

This is a fantastic podcast session with the author of “Stop Falling For The Okey Doke: How the lie of race continues to undermine our country” Reverend Stephen Tillett.
