Sarah McBride, "Tomorrow Will Be Different" (w/ Rep. Joe Kennedy)

Sarah McBride discusses her memoir, "Tomorrow Will Be Different", with Rep. Joe Kennedy at Politics and Prose on 3/20/18. As McBride recounts in this stirring memoir, she identified as female from the start, but came out as a transgender woman only at the end of her term as American University’s student body president in 2011. When the news went viral and she was featured on NPR and other media outlets, McBride decided to focus her political activism on LGBTQ rights. Her resumé alone is inspiring: an internship at the White House in 2012 made her the first openly transgender woman to work there, and her appearance at the 2016 Democratic convention made her the first openly transgender speaker at a major political convention. She is now National Press Secretary at the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBTQ civil rights organization. McBride is in conversation with Joe Kennedy, Congressional representative in his third term serving the Fourth District of Massachusetts. https://www.politics-prose.com/book/9781524761479 Founded by Carla Cohen and Barbara Meade in 1984, Politics and Prose Bookstore is Washington, D.C.'s premier independent bookstore and cultural hub, a gathering place for people interested in reading and discussing books.
