Josephine Zhao on The Michelle Meow Show: A Conversation for Compassion, Understanding and Growth

Join us for a special edition of The Michelle Meow Show at The Commonwealth Club.

This week's special guest: Former San Francisco School Board candidate Josephine Zhao.

Zhao's candidacy for the school board stirred up a great deal of controversy in the LGBTQ community due to comments she had made in interviews and text messages that criticized transgender people. She says she has changed and has apologized for her comments; her critics don't believer her. We invited her to discuss what happened, what her beliefs are today, and what she does next.

Josephine Zhao is a public school mother and advocate for public education. A single mother of two girls in city public schools, she has been a leader in the PTA.
