The Supreme Court’s “Mother of All Battles” for Woke Defenders – ACLU Campaign
Prominent advocates, including Naomi Watts and Megan Rapinoe, back the ACLU’s “More Than a Game” campaign, challenging the US Supreme Court’s stance on transgender athletes’ participation in women’s sports.
Defenders of the woke agenda are mounting a major battle at the U.S. Supreme Court. According to Breitbart, Naomi Watts and Elliot Page (formerly Ellen) are just a few of the prominent names supporting trans youth in a new awareness campaign by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
The “More Than a Game” campaign will launch on Monday and will include participants such as Megan Rapinoe, Sue Bird, Benito Skinner, Brianna Turner, as well as the lead plaintiff in the U.S. Supreme Court case that will determine whether trans athletes can compete in women’s sports.
The campaign features photos and videos of the participants wearing exclusive clothing designed by award-winning fashion designer and ACLU artistic ambassador Willy Chavarria. The photographs were captured by artist and fashion photographer Collier Schorr, and the visuals were directed by Sundance Award-winning filmmaker Alessandra Laccarozza.
Two-time World Cup winner Rapinoe expressed her concern, stating that “all women will be harmed” if the Supreme Court upholds bans on trans participation in women’s sports.
“This week, the Supreme Court is poised to hear a case that will have major implications for women’s sports and civil rights, as well as the future of our country,” Rapinoe said. “I will not risk sacrificing hard-won rights because of anti-trans rhetoric.”
“All women will be hurt if the Court rules against the young trans people at the center of these cases, and I want to be clear without reservation that I stand for equality and justice,” she added.
Chase Strangio, organizer of the ACLU’s LGBT & HIV project, noted that the campaign represents “a rejection of attempts to divide us.” “This moment in our country’s history is a test of our willingness to stand up and speak out for the most vulnerable,” Strangio said.
“While we will certainly defend our rights and humanity in the courts, we know that the successful path forward for trans people beyond this crisis will also require a broad, diverse coalition to bring about change in our communities and culture.”
“More Than a Game” is our opposition to efforts to divide us and is a call for the unity we need to defend the freedom we deserve, both on and off the field,” he added.
Notably, Paul Roland Bois’s film, EXEMPLUM, has received a 100% target score on Rotten Tomatoes and is available to watch free on platforms such as YouTube, Tubi, and Fawesome TV.
