Zach Koung: Last News

Jeopardy! Champion Amy Schneider refused to stay quiet. In an interview with Teen Vogue, they — alongside It Gets Better Project youth ambassador Zach Koung — discussed what it’s like to be trans in the public eye.Schnieder said she “felt a certain responsibility to be my best self and represent the trans community well,” during her time on Jeopardy!.“But I was also worried about that in the sense that I don’t want to present a ‘too perfect’ image of myself because I want everyone to be able to see that whether or not you are good at trivia, whether or not you have a lot of followers on social media, any of those things, you still deserve and can find the same acceptance, the same affirmation and freedom to express who you are,” she explained.Schnieder was pleasantly surprised by the response she got from the audience.
