Part 1 of 2: TYT contributor Ryan Grim spoke to Mara Keisling, Executive Director of the National Center for Transgender Equality 2 days after the Trump administration announced it was reversing federal guidance on Transgender protections issued under the Obama administration.  

They also discussed the implications of a Trump Department of Justice on North Carolina's infamous House Bill 2, a.k.a. "Hate Bill 2," which, if it is deemed Constitutional, will require people using public restrooms to prove that they have not changed their gender identity since birth.
