Summary
Kara Dansky is a feminist and attorney, here to talk with us today about Executive Order 13988. In this EO, the definition of sex is rewritten to include gender identity throughout all federally funded agencies.
Kara brings us a message of hope-filled action as she informs us of what our future will look like if we don’t protect sex-segregated spaces for women and girls.
How many women are we going to sacrifice at the altar of this ideology?

| 2:04.0 | Hi, thanks Emily for having me. |
| 2:06.0 | Yeah, thank you. It's a surreal honor to sit with you and talk about this and such a significant time in history. |

| 2:33.0 | And I'm a lawyer, and when I went to law school, it was with the somewhat big idea that I wanted to do work in the public interest realm, and I didn't have a more specific idea of what that would mean. |
| 2:46.0 | And when I graduated from law school, I still didn't have a very specific idea of what that would mean. |
| 2:52.0 | But I had a job in the federal court system, and that brought me to criminal justice work, and I became a public defender, and I spent about 20 years or so working in the criminal justice sector. |
