💨 Abstract

Trans athlete AB Hernandez, from Jurupa Valley, California, has faced intense backlash after winning several events at the California Interscholastic Federation Southern Section Masters Meet. Despite qualifying for the state championships, Hernandez and her mother were confronted by angry parents who protested her participation. Hernandez has been at the center of a national debate over trans athletes, with some states implementing bans on their participation.
