Fuck hope! I wanna feel whole!

In this episode of the Parent Advocate podcast, Lizette and Stephen speak with fellow parent and children's book publisher nadeen "mothasistah" herring. Join us as we spill the tea on her company blaq noyz, finding common ground for conversation, listening to our trans children and the value of hugs. In today's topics, we get into the United Methodist church lifting their ban on LGBTQ clergy, the Arkansas lawsuit over new restrictions on drivers license gender markers, the death of trans nonbinary teen River Nevaeh Goddard, and the Republican-led states suing the Biden administration over new Title IX regulations. Finally in Allies & Assholes, we highlight Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient Judy Shepard for her tireless work on behalf of LGBTQ+ people, and we drag American Independent Party candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., for affiliating with the avowed anti-LGBTQ party.
