Black trans people are among the most marginalized of marginalized Americans. But those closest to the nation’s most pressing problems are often able to craft innovative solutions.

The short film “American Problems, Trans Solutions” follows award-winning journalist Imara Jones as she travels across the country to tell the stories of three Black trans leaders on the frontlines of change: housing advocate Kayla Gore; Breonna McCree, a champion for economic empowerment; and Oluchi Omeoga, who fights for the rights of migrants.

Hear from Imara, Kayla, Breonna, and Oluchi as they discuss the film during a recent live screening and Q&A at the Greene Space in NYC.

And make sure to tune into PBS WORLD to watch “American Problems, Trans Solutions” on June 24 at 9pm ET.

American Problems, Trans Solutions is a production of TransLash Media in association with The WNET Group’s Chasing the Dream initiative.
