Abby Jensen Talks About Issues Transgender People Face In Arizona

Friday night, more than 17 million people watched Diane Sawyer's interview with Bruce Jenner, in which Jenner publicly announced that he identifies as a woman.

One of the many conversations that has come out of that interview is about Jenner's position of privilege and how his experiences as a transgender woman are much different than those of many trans people.

Abby Jensen, vice president of the Southern Arizona Gender Alliance, talks about some of the issues that trans individuals face in Arizona.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
