The top local stories this afternoon from KERA News: The fallout from last weekend’s Orlando shootings has special resonance for Araf Hossain. He’s the co-founder of the country’s first All-Muslim fraternity at UT-Dallas. He talks about a new project he’s trying to launch called Muslims Against ISIS.  

The Orlando shootings have brought another layer of pain to transgender kids and their families. Several of them are still trying to cope, and the rise of the bathroom issue has complicated their lives.
