What Happened to Laci Green and Where Is She Now

Explore the background of What Happened to Laci Green and Where Is She Now in this comprehensive feature.

Laci Green fell into a deep depression shortly after leaving The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and struggled with self-harm and suicidal thoughts. She began working with a therapist, who assisted her in overcoming her depression.

She is now an atheist, though she still attends the Unitarian Universalist church on occasion. Green considers herself to be pansexual.

She received death threats on the Internet in 2012 for using the term “tranny” in a video in 2009; she apologized and removed the video, claiming that the comment was made years earlier when she was very uneducated. In August 2012, she returned to her YouTube channel after a month’s hiatus.

Green received a Streamy Award for Science or Education in 2016.

She had a series of conversations with critics of identity politics, gender identity, and modern feminism on Twitter in her own reel and in the reel of other YouTubers in May 2017.

She stated that some of the criticisms were “more valid than they’d previously appeared,” and while she did not retract any of her previous positions on these issues, the critics welcomed Green’s overtures.
