Description

June is LGBTQ Pride Month.  It is time when those of us in the queer community celebrate who we are. It is a time of joy and empowerment. And a time for reflection – of thinking about how far we’ve come, and how far we’ve gone back again,

It is also a time to celebrate our heroes. That is why, in this episode, I speak with Lu Lipmen, a non-binary 13 year-old who is fighting back against the wave of anti-trans hate. They discuss how they face the hate and vitriol -- and how they respond with such courage, poise and determination.

Lu is an inspiring person, and this is a very special episode. I hope you enjoy it.


What's Next, Los Angeles? is produced and hosted by Mike Bonin, in partnership with LA Forward.
