Oh my god.

They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service.

"Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights"

WOW.

It really seems like the people at the agencies in charge of making these edits are doing them as badly as possible as a form of passive resistance, lol.

Bold of you to think we’re not in that state nearly always, especially in our current times.

oooh thank you! i totally should have shared it in a reply, thank you for thinking of that. ❤️

thousands of people showing up
to tell scared trans kids that they are beautiful and important and belong definitely makes a difference. and the organizers also shared a link for attendees to send messages to NYC hospitals to express outrage over stopping gender affirming care for youth.

the estimate from organizers is that more than 7,000 people showed up to show their love for trans youth! there were speakers as young as 9 years old and i am in awe of their courage.

Thank you SO MUCH for all that you do. There are virtually NO mainstream media sources we can trust to accurately report on trans issues anymore (if there ever were to begin with), and being able to rely on your reporting is literally lifesaving. Please take care of yourself too!

It’s a lot of work but I’m just done with companies that don’t respect data privacy now that we’re in the second Trump era.
