Unpacking the Vatican’s document on gender identity

This week on “Inside the Vatican,” Gerry and I unpack a the most comprehensive Vatican document on gender identity yet. The document, which was released by the Congregation for Education, seeks to address what it calls “an educational crisis” surrounding sexuality and gender. Why is it so important? And what have transgender Catholics in the United States said about it? Then, we htalk about what’s on the table at the U.S. bishops’ meeting, happening this week.
