Trans Rights Are Everyone’s Rights!
RSVPTransgender identity politics challenge the popular understanding of the relationship between gender and sexuality. The GOP likely will remain committed to transphobia for ideological reasons. More remarkably, leading centrist Democrats, including some in the White House, don’t realize that trans rights are a winning issue. Their squeamishness stands in contrast to the stance of grassroots Democrats in purple and red states such as North Carolina, Kentucky, and Nebraska where local Democrats have held the line against transphobia—sometimes with remarkable political success. For them and for us Trans Rights Are Everyone’s Rights!
Join us on July 31st to learn more about Transgender Community rights and discuss how we progressives can unite to protect our shared human rights. In preparation, please consult these sources:
