Trans Day of Visibility is for those who are not or cannot be seen in their truth yet. It's especially hard to feel safe these days. Visibility is essential to keeping us alive in a country that is trying to erase us. We are only human.

It's costing over $500 more per trans person to erase us than it ever cost to support us. That's the cost of hate. It's exhausting. Check out my latest Substack post, with receipts.

ICE detained a 5-year-old Minnesota boy coming home from school + took him and his dad to Texas, school officials say. The family has an active asylum case + entered the US at a port of entry. "They’re taking children. They're not violent criminals. They're little kids," the superintendent told me.
