Inspiring Unity in Trans Culture. Unity + Visiblity = Freedom
Not every mountain is moved with a major explosion. Most are moved by removing one large stone at a time. Change doesn’t happen by one man or woman, but every soul plays a part. That’s why this year I’m celebrating the everyday lives of the Black people in my life that through their lived experiences aided in the civil rights movement equally as important as any great leader.
Cuomo, in a statement released after he signed the bill into law, called the statute “archaic.” COVID exposed low tide in America and the ‘walking while trans’ policy is one example of the ugly undercurrents of injustices that transgender New Yorkers — especially those of color — face simply for walking down the street,” Cuomo said in the statement. “For too long trans people have been unfairly targeted and disproportionately policed for innocent, lawful conduct based solely on their appearance. Repealing the archaic ‘walking while trans’ ban is a critical step toward reforming our policing system and reducing the harassment and criminalization transgender people face simply for being themselves.”

By Artist Levi van Wyk:
I feel that if a transgender person states that they do not agree with something transgender-related, which was created by someone outside of the transgender community, they should be respected, instead of attacked.

The Australian Family Association and the National Civic Council, anti-lgbt groups, attacks as Australia carries out its postal survey on same-sex marriage. The fear tactic of a “transgender marriage” has been raised by some anti-LGBTI groups, as well as former Labor leader Mark Latham. which are very much opposed to same-sex marriage, have warned against allowing any two consenting adults to marry, claiming it will lead to changes in other laws.
Equality for third gender people should be the norm, and should not have to be fought for like crumbs in the streets from people who are as mortal as we are, with no more of a supreme right than we have to dictate the meaning of life.

There was one goal: to make the Jews leave Germany. On March 9, 1933, several weeks after Hitler assumed power, organized attacks on Jews broke out across Germany.
