TODAY: Happy International #Transgender Day of Visibility! #TDoV is every 31st March. Do you have anything planned to the occasion? #IAmEnough #YouAreEnough @LGBTfdn

#TransDayOfVisibility: One of our members has been featured on @LSESpectrum's twitter page to celebrate #TDOV2020! @LSEnews🏳️‍⚧️

It's #TransDayOfVisibility today. Visibility doesn't mean much when trans people are cut off from medication and healthcare. We need mutual aid and support far more than 'visibility'. Donate if you can. Share if you can't. #TDOV #TDOV2020 tinyurl.com/transmutualaid

Need more #support? @stonewalluk has lots of helpful advice on how #LGBTQIA groups can give you advice during the #COVID19 #pandemic on their website. #Staysafe everyone! bit.ly/3awpJJl @CovidAidUK @queercarenet @SexWorkHive @LGBTIQoutside @LGBTConsortium @LGBTfdn

Content note: transphobia and homophobia mentioned below "When you’re in a good place, you can #challenge it a good way, but when you’re not in a good place it can #buildup over time and add on top of each other.” - Helen Richardson, @PinkNews pinknews.co.uk/2019/12/26/hel…

"#Transgender model @MaxineHeron came out age six to her mum. Her parents #accepted her and their #support gave her the #courage to #transition, feel confident in embracing who she is, and now she’s a proud trans model." - Amy Ashenden. @Spectra_London pinknews.co.uk/2019/11/17/tra…

Content note: transphobia mentioned below #Judge rules that anti-trans (so-called) ‘#gender critical’ views are not a #protectedcharacteristic under the #equalitiesact, reports Vic Parsons, @PinkNews. Read more about this important case below: pinknews.co.uk/2019/12/19/may…

Please don't forget to vote next thursday if you can! Certain people would strongly prefer that you just sat at home and did nothing. Don't give them the satisfaction. If you do one thing this week, make it voting! Do it for those who have had the right taken from them.

As we remember those who have died as a result of hate crime and transphobia today on Transgender Day of Remembrance, show your love and solidarity for all trans people today who still are still surviving a world of transphobia and systematic inequality.

I just had the most incredible experience in front of my apartment building and I have to share it

I met up with Kai, a trans boy who is now almost 15, who we first filmed when he was 9. He’s been fully supported by his mum and it shows. He’s confident and clued up. We are filming him through @mygenderation, as a 10 year project.
