September 20: Not Over Yet: The Impact of COVID-19, Racial Reckoning, and SCOTUS on LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit Civil Rights

This program will provide an overview of LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit experiences during the pandemic and racial justice reckoning and beyond. LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit identities are not captured in pandemic public health data, and research on racial disparities rarely captures LGBTQ+ or Two Spirit experiences. But we can see their impacts in our legal system, in the types of legal issues presented at QLaw Foundation’s LGBTQ2S+ and Transgender Legal Clinics, and in the cases touching on personal freedom, expression, and privacy at our United States Supreme Court. As the impacts of the pandemic and our country’s ongoing racial justice reckoning continue to play out, this presentation will offer concrete strategies for legal representation and coalition-building across communities.
