In an op-ed for Balls and Strikes, Professor Ava Ayers of Albany Law School addressed the Supreme Court’s long history of rationalizing discrimination and argues that the current targeting of trans youth follows a familiar pattern.
Ayers writes, “Earning Americans’ respect also means living in the real world, where facts matter, and not falling for obvious lies. Too often, the Court has willingly embraced falsehoods urged on it by parties making excuses for bigotry. Trans kids are the latest victims of that weaponized gullibility.”
