A new song from Kate Nash that I think is worth a listen.
Girl listen up,
You’re not radical
Exclusionary, regressive, misogynist
Germ! Germ
Nah you’re not rad at all

This is a good video to watch. In it Adam Conover hosts three of his friends who are transgender for a discussion about what it is like to have the government targeting them.
The Trump administration is actively working to erase the existence of trans people through policy and legislation. But no law can erase the 1.6 million trans people living in America, nor the reality of their lives and experiences. These are real people facing real consequences—impacting their rights, safety, and livelihoods. This week, Adam sits down with his friends and fellow comedians Dylan McKeever, River Butcher, and Sammy Mowrey, who all happen to be trans, to talk about what it’s like to navigate this moment in America as a trans person.
