An Evening with Diane Schroer
An Evening with Diane Schroer (in partnership with ACLU-Illinois). The Center welcomes ACLU-Illinois and Diane Schroer (transgender activist) a woman who lost a job offer because of her sexual status and won a groundbreaking federal sex discrimination lawsuit. In 2008 a federal district court judge in Washington, D.C., ruled that the Library of Congress discriminated against Diane Schroer when it offered her a job and then rescinded it after learning she was transgendered. The American Civil Liberties Union, which represented Schroer, said Judge James Robertson's ruling is the first to hold that the federal sex discrimination statute, Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, applies to transgendered people. Join Ms. Schroer as she shares her personal story of discovering her female gender identity and her decision to transition. She will talk about the challenges of coming out to her friends and family, and discuss the importance of engaging in the political process in a thoughtful and strategic way. ACLU’s John Knight will also speak on the recently passed Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
