The latest installment of “We Dissent” features a special guest to get to the bottom of two important recent Supreme Court cases.

On Episode 51, FFRF Deputy Legal Director Liz Cavell, Americans United Legal Director Rebecca Markert and National Women’s Law Center Director of Nominations & Democracy Alison Gill welcome Shiwali Patel, senior director of education justice at the National Women’s Law Center, who analyzes the anti-trans sports ban cases currently before the Supreme Court: Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J. They then discuss the history of Title IX — and why the attack on trans sports participation is really an attack on the basis of the critical nondiscrimination law. 

“We Dissent,” which first aired in May 2022, is a legal affairs show offering legal wisdom from the secular viewpoint of women lawyers. The show is a collaboration of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, Americans United and the National Women’s Law Center.
