About the event
Media coverage tends to sensationalize the fight over how trans kids should be allowed to
live, but what is incredibly rare are the voices of the people at the heart of this debate:
transgender and gender nonconforming kids themselves. For their groundbreaking new
book, journalist Nico Lang spent a year traveling the country to document the lives of
transgender, nonbinary, and genderfluid teens and their families. Drawing on hundreds of
hours of on-the-ground interviews with them and the people in their communities,
