In the 1950s, LGBTQ+ public servants were pushed out of government due to their identity.
As HRC’s Jonathan Lovitz illustrates, the recent dismissal of David Maltinsky for displaying a Pride flag is a warning sign that those days may return. https://bit.ly/49Fc18x

Because of gravity-defying trailblazers like Cynthia Erivo, the path to living out and proud for millions of LGBTQ+ people has been changed for good.
A year later and her message continues to ring true: The world needs you.

On #TransDayOfRemembrance, we honor our trans siblings lost to fatal violence and their impact.
We will not stop fighting until trans people are not just able to survive, but thrive and live safe, full, and joyful lives. May our collective grief, reflection, and action lead to a better future.
