SUMMARY:License Plate Hate in Arizona & beyond
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Join us Friday\, June 19 at noon/PST  as we welcome journalists Hope Pisoni and John Washington to discuss license plate hate in Arizona.  \n\n\n\nSince 2012\, the AZDOT has sold “In God We Trust” license plates; money from every purchase goes to fund an Arizona-based anti-LGBTQIA+ hate group. These two reporters took a deep dive into political license plates in AZ and around the country. Read their reporting here. \n\n\n\nRegister here. \n\n\n\n\nHope Pisoni is an investigative reporter at Uncloseted Media and a proud trans woman. She has investigated anti-trans pseudoscience\, hate groups\, incarceration and more at Uncloseted\, and has written about student activism\, housing and video games for Washington Square News\, City Limits and The A.V. Club\, respectively. Her work has been picked up by local outlets in seven states as well as by long-running publications like GAY TIMES and The Washington Blade. Read Hope’s work here.  \n\n\n\nJohn Washington is a staff writer at Lookout\, where he covers the border and immigration as well as the statehouse. He is also an award-winning translator and author. His latest book\, How to Close a Camp: Dispatches from the Fight Against Immigrant Detention\, will be published by Haymarket Books in July 2026. He writes a newsletter\, Lit & Border News.” \n\n\n\nRead John’s work here.
