Heightened Scrutiny (Free Film Screening)

Join us for a FREE film screening at Theatre N in Wilmington, hosted by the Delaware Sexuality & Gender Collective (DSGC)! The film will be followed by a discussion on the landscape of trans rights in Delaware and what you can do to advocate for our trans community. About The Film Fearless civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio battles at the Supreme Court for transgender adolescents’ access to gender-affirming healthcare, confronting not only the legal system but also a media landscape that distorts public perception and threatens the struggle for trans rights. With the dangerous SCOTUS decision upholding the ban on life-saving healthcare, Heightened Scrutiny is an urgent call to action against bigotry and injustice.
