Photography by Danielle Levitt

Broadus, who last year became the first openly transgender person to testify before the U.S. Senate, is an acclaimed lawyer and speaker who in September was made the head of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force's Transgender Civil Rights Project. The founder of the Trans People of Color Coalition and a law professor at Lincoln University in Missouri, he told his story of workplace harassment during his transition as part of his Senate testimony.
