Katelyn O’Brien
We chat with Katelyn O’Brien, a trans woman, comic book nerd, and a pipefitter working for a shipbuilding company in Virginia. We talk all about Katelyn's dangerous job and about the struggles LGBT workers face in the workplace—from everyday harassment on the job site to systemic and legislative discrimination.
