Activist Raquel Willis, a Black trans woman, is wearing a white shirt that says β€œGender Liberation Movement” in black letters , black leather coat, and black pants. She is being escorted by a police officer in uniform. The scene takes place outdoors, with a red pickup truck and several other police officers visible in the background. She appears composed while being led away.

Let today’s Capitol Hill bathroom sit-in spark an era of radical defiance. Trans folks refuse to bow to hate and bigotry. We demand dignity and respect. We will fight like our ancestors. We are building with our elders and peers. And trans youth will inherit a better world.

This isn't a culture war. This is the only trans congresswoman, ever being bullied through the press and legislation, and having only 1 of hundreds of colleagues stand up for her. They can do more than 1 thing at a time. Defending her will not take so much effort that they can't do their jobs.

Transgender Day of Remembrance

Today, we pause to honor the lives of transgender individuals who have been lost to violence, hatred, and injustice. It is a day of mourning, reflection, and remembrance, but also a day to renew our commitment to creating a safer, more inclusive world for all.
