A 12-year-old trans kid wants to run on her school's cross-country and track teams, but the state of West Virginia doesn't want to allow it. This anti-trans case, West Virginia v. BPJ, is on emergency application at the Supreme Court, which means—the shadow docket. Ugh.

In a new episode of Boom! Lawyered, Jess and Imani discuss how the conservative movement is taking draconian measures on a made-up cultural war surrounding trans kids in sports.

Be sure to stay til the end of the episode for a special Boom! Lawyered announcement.

Correction: This podcast misstates the last name of a 12-year-old at the center of West Virginia v. BPJ. Her name is Becky Pepper-Jackson. (We’re sorry, Ms. Pepper-Jackson.)
