“Five years ago was Robert, then a a name changed to Robin.” “This is being seized in all corners, as you can imagine, in all sorts of ways.” “And, obviously, you chose to do that in that moment because you thought it was important, and I wanted to give you a chance to say why, to say why you felt it was important to do that in that moment.” “I've heard about the rhetoric and the narrative that is being pushed out, but here's the thing.” “Anybody that is gonna use this as an opportunity to villainize our trans community or any community has lost touch with a common humanity.” “We gotta be operating not out of hate for any group, but out of a love for our children.” “That’s where the focus needs to be right now.” “A love for our kids.”

I noticed metallic posters in student bathrooms promoting hotlines like the national suicide hotline and the Trevor Project. Curious, I texted the suicide hotline about my gender confusion and received guidance to explore my gender. I visited trevorspace.org, which is for ages 13 to 24, and found discussions among kids expressing loneliness and seeking friends. There were various chat spaces, including those for non-binary individuals and even a regressor space where older individuals could identify as younger. I believe schools are becoming a pipeline for human trafficking, particularly affecting vulnerable LGBTQ kids. When I spoke at the National Educators Association about the Trevor Project, I was abruptly cut off, indicating its sensitive status.

Speaker 0 asks Speaker 1 for some history regarding their gender dysphoria to help with writing a letter. Speaker 1 explains that when they were in school, they wrote an essay expressing their discomfort with their biological sex and how they felt. However, people dismissed their feelings because they appeared to be male.

A speaker visited the school for two days to ensure that staff could provide information to students about their gender. They emphasized the importance of adults guiding students in sexual education, including topics like masturbation and anal sex. The speaker mentioned a bill that was passed for children as young as five years old. The speaker acknowledged that discussing these topics might be uncomfortable for some, but believed it was necessary. They mentioned critical race theory and pointed out that the principal and mayor of the school were black.

Speaker 0, identifying as the only Black lesbian in the room, asks Senator Winner a direct question about women’s safety in female-only spaces, referencing an incident at Gold’s Gym where she was attacked in a locker room by a self-identifying trans woman with a documented history of domestic violence. She asks what Senator Winner would say to women seeking assurance that their safety will be protected from men who, under California law, can self-identify as women in women-only spaces. Speaker 1 responds that “we want everyone to be safe,” and notes that trans people exist as both men and women, saying, “if you're trans women or women.” He emphasizes the need to protect safety for all, acknowledging that trans women are part of the discussion. Speaker 0 continues, praising Senator Winner for housing bills and other actions, but asserts that “millions of women across America are being harassed and sexually assaulted in locker rooms.” She reiterates that she is a lesbian Black woman, not transphobic or homophobic, and stresses that some bills passed by Winner are dangerous for women and young children. She states she represents her community and urges protection for women in light of concerns about trans-inclusive policies. Speaker 2 interjects, urging Speaker 0 to allow Senator Winner to respond, while Speaker 0 reiterates the need for protection of women, specifying “Women. Women. Trans women are doing things. Women. Women.” She asserts that she was assaulted, adding, “They are not. They are men.” She describes the assailant as someone who “broke his wife’s jaw” requiring reconstructive surgery, and emphasizes her identity as a lesbian who is Black. She invites another Black woman to share her feelings, while also challenging the presence of others in the room. Speaker 1 reiterates the goal of protecting the safety of all women and acknowledges that “trans women are also brutalized in this country.” The conversation emphasizes a tension between protecting women’s safety and acknowledging the experiences of trans women, with Speaker 0 insisting, “We cannot be raped in the bathrooms by men that wanna say they're women. They're not women.” Speaker 2 responds by leaving, citing that the group is not protecting women, and remarks on the bills, stating she has read many of them and still finds issues “not right.” The exchange ends with Speaker 2, introducing herself as Tish Heine, and a comment about not allowing Blackness and civil rights to be used to justify laws for children to transform, followed by a remark about disparities in access to tampons versus transformation medication. The conversation also touches on broader political history, with Speaker 1 and Speaker 0 referencing political dynamics, including a note that “things were going so smoothly” before recalling an earlier moment in 2008 involving Aaron Peskin.

Children, especially kids of color, are reaching out to me for support. They want me to stand up for them, and I'm ready to take action. I’ve never truly worked for those in power; I’ve just pretended to respect them out of fear. But now, it’s about the kids. I’m willing to bring any issues to the district and the news, ensuring anonymity for those who share with me. I’m here to protect good people and do my job. I feel blessed today, and having worked in various high schools has helped me build a strong network of friends. Let’s make a difference together.

Hi, I'm Denise Bell, a mom of four and chapter chair for Moms for Liberty Harris County. I'm speaking on behalf of an HISD parent whose daughter, a junior at Bel Air High School, was actively socially transitioned at school without their knowledge or consent. In ninth grade, the theater teacher asked for the student's pronouns on an information sheet. Following this, multiple teachers began calling her by a different name and pronouns. One teacher even crossed out her legal name on her paper and wrote her chosen name in red ink. This was done without the parents' knowledge or consent, going against their Christian faith, the advice of their therapist, and common sense. Meetings with teachers, counselors, and the principal yielded no change. HISD is secretively transitioning minors.

In school bathrooms, I noticed posters for hotlines like the national suicide hotline and the Trevor Project. Curious, I texted the national suicide hotline about my gender confusion. They ensured I wasn't suicidal and suggested I explore my gender. I visited TrevorSpace.org, which is for ages 13-24, and found discussions about loneliness and friendship. There were chat spaces for various identities, including non-binary and age regression. I believe schools are becoming a pipeline for human trafficking, particularly affecting vulnerable LGBTQ kids. When I spoke about this at the National Educators Association, I was cut off when mentioning the Trevor Project, which seems untouchable.

A person is confronted and accused of being a transphobe who believes "trans kids should be cis kids." The person asks what makes a child trans and what gender is. Another person states you are born trans and gender is a spectrum, like a rainbow. A trans person says the person is playing god and "it fucks kids up." The trans person says the person should be ashamed and that they matter. The person being confronted asks someone to call the police, claiming assault. The trans person says the person is abusive and is spewing hate, not even knowing what gender is. The trans person encourages people to come down and tell the person that trans kids have rights. The person states they are waiting for police because they were assaulted.

Speaker 0 expresses frustration about having to stay overnight and drive back to Houston due to filibustering. Speaker 1 threatens to sue if their child is taught CRT or SEL, and encourages others to do the same. They argue against the need for CRT, SEL, and sexual expression in schools, referencing the Bible. They criticize teachers for lying and leaving due to uncomfortable situations. They reject emotional support learning and assert their identity as a mother. They vow to fight against these issues. Speaker 2 thanks them for their testimony. No questions are asked.

The speaker says some states, like California and Washington, may take children from parents who oppose gender-affirming care. They believe the trans issue played a significant role in the last election, particularly an ad criticizing Kamala Harris's stance. They claim Harris had little room to push back because gender-affirming care was mandated under a lawsuit settlement during her time as Attorney General. The speaker finds the issue of gender-affirming care for children, especially regarding age, to be complex. They admit the trans issue is relatively new to them, and they are still trying to understand aspects like pronouns. They recall an experience where their Hispanic chief of staff strongly advised against using the term "Latinx." They note that post-George Floyd and post-COVID, there was a push for more sensitivity in language and a rise in discussions around gender-affirming care, but the science around it seems contradictory.

Most trans kids know they're trans between ages two and seven, with the speaker's daughter knowing around two and a half. The speaker emphasizes that children know things that adults don't, and these are the things to which adults should listen. The speaker states their child is not mentally ill. To begin gender affirming care, the speaker had to consult with numerous healthcare professionals.

Speaker 0 describes a desire for increased support in schools and education venues to help communities work together. They share an example from a school where a white girl wore a hijab; after walking down the street, she returned and said she felt differently treated simply because she was wearing headwear that differed from her usual dress. The experience is presented as a way to help children who have never been exposed to other communities or ethnicities understand what it is like to live with those everyday experiences. The speaker asks whether the person they are addressing can speak to the ethic youth support team. They note that the team works closely with the Welsh Government, providing additional resources to extend this work to other schools across Wales, with the goal of starting this education at a young age to foster understanding among diverse communities.

Speaker 0 introduces themselves as Adena and mentions calling someone's name. Speaker 1, a teacher in the district, talks about their involvement in LUSD and their work with queer trans youth at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. They discuss the trauma faced by these youth due to the oppressive systems they live in. Speaker 1 supports critical race theory and diversity inclusion equity training, highlighting how white people benefit from social welfare programs but ignore issues like the housing crisis and the Armenian genocide. They also mention the struggles of oppressed trans youth, including high suicide rates and early recognition of their gender identity.

Beauty blockers have been used by doctors for kids experiencing precocious puberty. The conversation then shifts to transgender children, with one speaker arguing that gender affirming care is life-saving and reduces suicide rates. The other speaker questions the lack of studies on suicide rates among transgender children and argues against medical interventions like hormone therapy and surgeries. The conversation becomes heated, with one speaker claiming that transgender children don't exist and that they should be accepted as they are, while the other argues that they need medical interventions. The debate centers around the belief that transgender children are either born in the wrong body or that they should be accepted without medical interventions.

The speaker is co-chair of the trans and non-binary network of the NEU, a teacher at an alternative provision where most students are trans and non-binary, and an activist. The speaker clarifies they did not make their students trans; the school was like that when they arrived. These students come to the alternative provision because they are kicked out of the mainstream education system. Their gender expression is seen as a dismissal of behavior policy, their self-advocacy is seen as defiance, and their identity is seen as something worth anguish, not pride. The speaker and colleagues work to help students through trauma and show them that learning does not need to be an act of silencing. The speaker believes the current government's guidance is despicable and that there is no reason why students cannot be themselves in classrooms. The speaker urges the audience to speak to MPs, friends, families, Facebook groups, and local clubs. The speaker wants to tell their students that when systems fail to protect them, they fight back.

The speaker discusses the importance of affirming language and practices in education, particularly in the past year. They mention that their organization focuses on this type of work rather than healthy relationships. The speaker also mentions their coworker, Lisa Shelby, who is the director of the organization. In an interview, Lisa Shelby confirms that their organization offers a pathway to racial literacy class in certain New Jersey schools, taking advantage of the fact that parents cannot opt their children out of this course.

The speaker is the head of LGBTQ DEMS in Maryland since fall. The position is voluntary. They discuss receiving disturbing messages and threats. The speaker expresses discomfort with the content. The conversation shifts to the president, with unclear remarks made. There are references to sexual content in the messages received.

Speaker 0 asks Governor Newsom about his well-being. Speaker 1 brings up two cases of young individuals who regretted getting their breasts removed at a young age. Speaker 1 expresses frustration that there are age restrictions for tattoos and dating, but not for gender-affirming surgeries. Speaker 1 mentions sending a letter as an attorney and highlights the issue of kids committing suicide. Speaker 0 then asks Governor Newsom about his response to parents' concerns regarding their children's ability to medically transition at a young age.

Beauty blockers have been used by doctors for children experiencing precocious puberty. The conversation then shifts to transgender children, with one speaker arguing that gender affirming care is life-saving and reduces suicide rates. The other speaker questions the lack of studies on suicide rates among transgender children and challenges the necessity of medical interventions such as hormone therapy and surgeries. The conversation becomes heated as they discuss the cutting off of body parts and the speaker's belief that there is no such thing as a transgender child. The debate centers around the message being sent to children and the potential harm or benefit of gender affirming care.

The speaker discusses the issue of parents not being informed if their children are transitioning at school. They compare this issue, affecting about 1% of the population, to climate change, which impacts everyone. They emphasize that this is a significant and distracting issue. The speaker believes that these kids just want to live their lives. The conversation then transitions to a debate about something related to Reagan.

The transcript opens with a speaker, identified as Speaker 0, addressing the group with strong emotional accusation. He alleges he suffered a traumatic brain injury in the district two and a half years ago, resulting in an inability to drive or function in environments like the meeting. He claims he has not received any outreach or assistance from the district during this time and asserts that a student was repeatedly warned about dangerous behavior, which led to injuries to other students and teachers. He says the district’s workers’ compensation process has failed him, leaving him to suffer in silence while the district allegedly ignored his condition. Speaker 0 asserts that he volunteered to fill in for staff who were harmed by students, including one staff member who was removed by a student and another who injured a student and was arrested. He contends that he was abandoned by the district and faced ongoing hardship as a result. He states that he has documentation supporting his traumatic brain injury and claims he cannot function normally on a regular basis. He expresses intent to demand accountability from the district and warns that if the district does not help him and his family, he will take action to publicize district failures. He makes a pointed reference to a principal who, according to him, was afraid of a student during the incident and is now being praised by the district. He claims the district is patting the principal on the back while he and others suffer. He states that he did not want to stand up and do this, but the district’s choices forced him to. He declares that from now on, he will be visible and vocal, determined to highlight every district failure he can find in order to attract state and national scrutiny and to counter school choice efforts that he believes will result from inaction. Speaker 1 then speaks and moves to terminate the probationary contract of certified employee Christopher Domkowski, stating it is in the best interest of the district as discussed in closed session. The motion also requests that the administration provide notice to the employee of the board’s action as required by Chapter 21 of the Texas Education Code. Speaker 2 seconds the motion, and a vote is taken. A motion and second are noted, and after comments, the motion passes with seven votes in favor and zero opposed. The session concludes with formal acknowledgment that the motion to terminate the probationary contract has been approved.

My name is Ethan Dickson, living in Austin's 3rd district. I came out as transgender at 13, facing struggles with hormone blockers, testosterone, and self-harm. After starting cross-sex hormones at 17, I experienced cardiovascular issues, mood swings, and joint pain. At 19, I questioned my distress and realized the harm caused by transitioning. Now 21, I deal with complications like vaginal atrophy and regret permanent changes. I advocate against legislation allowing experimental medicine on children, urging for therapeutic support instead of unnecessary hormone treatments. Reject proposal 64 to protect kids from harm. Translation: My name is Ethan Dickson, and I live in Austin's 3rd district. I came out as transgender at 13 and faced challenges with hormone treatments and self-harm. Starting cross-sex hormones at 17 led to health issues and regret. At 19, I questioned my distress and realized the harm of transitioning. Now 21, I deal with complications and advocate against experimental treatments for children, promoting therapeutic support instead. Reject proposal 64 to protect children from harm.

Speaker 0 accuses Speaker 1 of spreading propaganda and not providing education. Speaker 1 questions if Speaker 0 will target the transgender community next. Speaker 0 interrupts Speaker 2, apologizes, and insults Speaker 1's understanding of the topic. Speaker 1 points out Speaker 0's lack of knowledge.
