In this gripping season of the Anti-Trans Hate Machine, host Imara Jones examines the disturbing links between the rise of political violence in America, far-right paramilitary groups, and anti-trans hate. Join us as we show how far-right militias, by redirecting their focus after the January 6 insurrection to attacking drag shows and LGBTQ events, are seeking to destabilize communities from the ground up. 


We’ll uncover how these extremist groups, in tandem with Republican politicians at all levels, are leveraging anti-trans ideology to advance their broader agenda of political upheaval. In each episode, we'll shed light on the dangerous rise in targeted attacks, from Idaho's militia battlegrounds to neo-Nazi rallies in Idaho, and analyze the systemic failures enabling this surge. Importantly we will also unpack what must be done to combat this rising threat and preserve democracy.


Season 3 of the Anti-Trans Hate Machine launches October 8.
