Sarah McBride has a voice that manages to be both very unique and universally explanatory at the same time. She has the perspective of being a trans woman deeply involved in LGBTQ advocacy, all the while being conscientious of the privileges she has in coming from an accepting and progressive circle of family, friends and colleagues, while white.

She has this perfect balance in both acknowledging the the privileges this has afforded her and the inherent hardships that come with knowing you are not thoroughly recognized, accepted and protected by the law in all of the country you live in and love.


Sarah is a brave young woman, utilizing her voice to explain in simple terms what it means to be transgendered in a way that’s easy to understand and empathize with. She gives another face to the cause of equality, and helps humanize it even further- showcasing what the good fight is all about.
