AFGE Pride recognizes and stands in solidarity with our intersex siblings! We see you and honor you as a valued part of our community and our union.
A post honoring November 8th Intersex Day of Solidarity. The body of the post is the same as the text in the original message here. There is also a photo of the intersex pride flag flying against a blue sky and another of 6 hands on top of each other in a gesture of team solidarity. The AFGE Pride logo is also on the post.
