שתפו את זה, שכל ישראלי וישראלית ידעו: יש מה לעשות נגד ההרעבה וההשמדה בעזה ונגד הפקרת החטופים - בחמישי - הפגנת ענק בת״א בשישי - הפגנות ועמידות בעשרות יישובים ערבים החל ממחר - פעולות שיבוש שגרה והפגשת הציבור עם המציאות בעזה להגיד ״לא בשמי״ זה לא מספיק, צריך לפעול ולעצור את הזוועה

Trump administration axes more than $125M in LGBTQ health funding, upending research field 🧵⬇️My latest for @NBCNews: The administration’s cancellation of hundreds of grants is dismantling the LGBTQ-focused research field, built out of nothing over a quarter century.

@elonmusk Transgender people are 4x more likely than cisgender people to be VICTIMS of violence

What are the statistics on trans violence? The probability of a trans person being violent appears to be vastly higher than non-trans. Hormone injections cause extreme emotional volatility. That is simply a fact.

Transgender people are attacked by violence 4 times more than cisgender people in the US

Federal data collection on sexual orientation and gender identity are essential for public health and policy. The removal of such data from the public record and the loss of future data would set the United States decades backward williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/publications/a…

Join us Thursday 8/22 RSVP link in profile

Join us on August 22 at 9am PT for a webinar on attitudes toward LGBTQ people in Mainland China. Panelists will discuss results from our recent survey and and their implications on China’s LGBTQ population. RSVP: bit.ly/LGBTQChinawebi…

Should be noted that respondents were disproportionally young, well-educated, coastal, and more affluent:

Over half of the Chinese people surveyed said that LGBTQ people should be accepted by Chinese society. People who knew an LGBTQ person, were younger, female, and with higher education were more likely to show favorable attitudes toward LGBTQ people. bit.ly/LGBTQChina

Majorities of the mainland Chinese people we surveyed agreed that LGBTQ people should be treated fairly at work and LGBTQ students should be protected from bullying and violence at school. bit.ly/LGBTQChina

‼️Mainland Chinese respondents in new @WilliamsPolicy survey (n=2926) showed high levels of acceptance of LGBTQ ppl: williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/publications/l…. 52% of respondents “agreed” & 37% “somewhat agreed” w/ legalizing same-sex marriage. Similar %s were accepting of same-sex parents🧵

Pleased to share a new report by @WilliamsPolicy and @ilanmeyer that finds a majority surveyed from mainland China agree that LGBTQ people should be accepted by society, able to marry, treated fairly at work, and free from bullying at school. williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/publications/l…

Our new study finds nearly 3/4 of transgender youth in the U.S.—222,500 teens—live in states that have passed laws or had pending bills in 2024 that restrict their participation in school sports. bit.ly/2024TransBills

Why Anti-LGBTQ Attacks Matter for Democracy on.cfr.org/45uSjXd via @CFR_org @arimshaw @WilliamsPolicy

Proud to share our new report from @WilliamsPolicy on "Democratic Backsliding and LGBTI Acceptance" With Andrew Flores and @MiguelFuca we find evidence that attacks on #LGBTI people can be a canary in the coalmine signaling deeper erosion of dem norms and practices. 🧵1/n

A lack of societal recognition and acceptance of gender identities--and increasing politically motivated attacks on transgender individuals--increase stigma and prejudice, which contributes to the high rates of suicidality among trans people. -- @ilanmeyer bit.ly/TransPopsuicid…
