Laverne Cox: “Google Gavin Grimm”
Gavin Grimm is a transgender boy who attends Gloucester High School in Virginia; he’s currently taking on the Gloucester County School Board in a lawsuit which will decide whether trans students will be able to use restrooms and facilities that comport with their gender identity. A case so important could set valuable precedents for a whole range of folks, but we haven’t been hearing much about it–Laverne Cox fixed that in a heartbeat by reminding us of his name and his struggle before introducing Lady Gaga’s duet with Metallica.
