Description

In August, Gov. Maura Healey appointed Giselle Byrd, a trans woman to the Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women. It’s an independent state agency focused on the advancement of women and girls toward full equity in all areas of life. Giselle has recently received death threats and racist, transphobic comments online after an article about her appointment spread. Giselle joined us on NightSide to discuss the threats against her, Gov. Healey’s support, and her position at the MCSW.
