Stop Trans Genocide! We Will Not Be Eradicated!
Today in Boston, Massachusetts, several hundred protesters gathered at Government Center to rally in support of Transgender human rights after numerous attacks by right wing bigots and conservative mouth piece Michael Knowles during a CPAC speech called for 'eradicating transgenderism". Republicans in several states having been pushing for anti-trans legislation, including banning gender affirming transgender health care, as well as criminalizing gender expression. After the rally protesters took the streets and marched to the Massachusetts State House.
Trans Lives Are Under Attack!
More than 127 bans on gender affirming healthcare have been introduced in 29 states.
More than 380 anti-trans legislation have been introduced in 44 states this year.
At least 56 trans youth sports bans have been introduced in 25 states.
Texas & Florida among other states have introduced bills criminalizing gender expression that differs from person's sex assigned at birth.
As a transgender person, I appreciate all the people who stand up to support us in our collective struggle for human rights. No person should ever be subjected to oppression, hatred and violence for just existing. In America, trans lives are in danger! Contact your state representatives and demand federal protections for gender affirming health care and end the discriminatory practices harming transgender and non-binary people.
