Description

Congresswoman Sarah McBride joins The People’s Cabinet to address recent political violence, rising attacks on the trans community, and the challenge of leading with hope in a divided democracy.

Congresswoman McBride talks to Dan Koh about:

  • Her reaction to the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk — and why all political violence threatens democracy
  • The relentless scapegoating of the trans community
  • Why coalition-building requires giving grace to “imperfect allies” instead of enforcing purity tests
  • Lessons from the marriage equality fight — and how to shift public opinion again
  • How she‘s passing bipartisan legislation for Delawareans
  • The message she wants every scared or isolated LGBTQ+ kid to hear
