May Elida School Board Meeting Speeches
Channel: The Trans Atheist hosted by Arienne Christina
Date: 19/05/2023

This video contains speeches from the May Elida Board of Education public comment portion.  The small community of Elida Ohio has been a hotbed of transphobic debate since parents formed "Elida Parents Against Bathroom Policy" in response to trans youth being allowed to use the facilities of the gender they identify with.  

Northwest Ohio Trans Advocacy was formed, in part, to respond to this bigotry.  NOTA organized and encouraged allies in the community to attend the May meeting and many did show up and speak.  While the meeting was smaller in attendance and somewhat calmer, it still contained far too much transphobic abuse.  Pro-Trans rights speakers were booed, jeered and misgendered as they attempted to speak.
