Summary
Laverne Cox, the Emmy-winning actress from "Orange Is the New Black," reports losing 90% of her income over the past few years due to the Trump administration's attacks on gender ideology and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. In an interview with The Guardian promoting her new memoir "Transcendent: A Memoir," Cox explained that her corporate speaking engagements and teaching work have dried up because universities and colleges fear being defunded for promoting gender ideology or DEI programs.
