Despite making up less than 1% of the U. S. population, transgender people are frequent targets of disinformation and scapegoating. This has been especially true for transgender athletes. This year, three volleyball players at Santa Rosa Junior College filed a U. S. Department of Education complaint alleging Title IX violations by the school and the California Community College Athletic Association for allowing a transgender player on the school’s team. The players claimed, among other things, that the trans player posed a physical danger to them.
