48. Transgender Athlete Rights Are Human Rights May 11, 2021

Show notes

Sports can be the difference between a fully realized identity and feeling alone in the world. Inclusion is about human rights because it is about identity and acceptance for people that have faced marginalization and discrimination. All real-world evidence supports the fairness of inclusion, and future scientific conversations need to be grounded in human rights.

So much love for you all! THANK YOU!
