Screening of "Heightened Scrutiny"

In collaboration with the Northeastern Law's Queer Caucus, we plan to screen Sam Feder's documentary "Heightened Scrutiny" on 10/22 at 6pm!

Sam Feder (they/them) is a trans documentarian whose films focus on the intersection of media and politics along the lines of race, class, and gender.

Their documentary "Heightened Scrutiny" follows ACLU attorney Chase Strangio, the first openly trans person to argue before the Supreme Court, as he fights a high-stakes legal battle to overturn Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth (United States v. Skrmetti). Chase and other trans activists like Laverne Cox and Elliot Page examine how media bias influences the public’s perception of trans rights.
