Ari's Threads

If you’re trans in America right now, you’re navigating a system that changes under your feet—new executive orders, shifting policies, institutions that promised support quietly deleting your records. The news covers the outrage. I cover what it actually means and what to do next. I spent years as the LGBTQ Program Director at Media Matters, tracking how right-wing media builds narratives and how those narratives become policy. My research has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, NPR, and Rolling Stone. I appear in the documentary Heightened Scrutiny alongside Chase Strangio, Elliot Page, and Laverne Cox.
