On May 22, over 50 trans and nonbinary youth from at least 18 states gathered in front the U.S. Capitol with their birth and chosen families, including over 50 trans and nonbinary adults, to throw the party and issue a manifesto. While the country regressively debates the contours of gender-affirming healthcare and the validity of trans people, we collectively made the decision not to entertain those debates and instead celebrate our powerful lineages of resistance. As we move into the even more deadly and toxic discourse of the presidential primary season, Trans Prom was designed to be a reminder and an anchor.
they slayed, visibility like this is beautiful. thanks for sharing
I'm more than happy to throw some good news into the mix. I'm getting tired of the doom and gloom. Pride should be about celebration! I know there's been a major regression lately, but let's not forget to be proud of who we are and to celebrate our community-- especially the brave young ones who stand up and stand out!
