Today on Stateside, we discussed the Supreme Court’s latest ruling allowing states to ban transgender women and girls from playing in public school sports. Margo Schlanger, a University of Michigan law professor, explained the effects the ruling will have on the country and state.
Then, we explored Michigan’s pre-statehood history with the executive producer of a new documentary, Frontier to Freedom. The film traces Michigan's past, beginning with Indigenous homelands in the 1600s, to its establishment as the nation’s 26th state.
