CBSN
An heir to The Walt Disney Co. has publicly come out as transgender. In a recent interview, Charlee Disney described a little about their own journey, as they condemned states that have been passing bills that seek to restrict the rights of the LGBTQ community.
The 30-year-old high school biology and environmental science teacher first publicly came out last month during a gala for the Human Rights Campaign, where they announced a $250,000 matching grant to the advocacy group. They told The Los Angeles Times last week that they first privately came out as transgender four years ago.
This was one of the heir's most prominent acts of public support for the LGBTQ community. Charlee Disney told The Los Angeles Times, "I feel like I don't do very much to help."
