Did I share my patch of @transunityquilt.bsky.social before? It was amazing to see it again today, now that it’s been sewn into position.

Can’t remember if I shared this on here before, but this was my contribution to the @transunityquilt.bsky.social at Trans+ Pride London today.

None of us chooses
the circumstances of our entry into this world.
The time, the location, who our parents, are.
The ways in which genetics and chance interact.
We can no more change these, than we can change who we are.
Being
TRANS
is as much a part of the natural variation of being human as having
red hair, or freckles.
Trans people are sisters, brothers, mums, dads, coworkers, friends, lovers.
We are part of humanity’s glorious variety.
We are part of
LIFE

Emily
Words matter. Language is routinely used to harm trans people, so I thought l'd use it in a positive way, instead (also, I can't draw or paint or do any of that other creative stuff).

A great post from Jess explaining GLP's approach to fighting for trans rights, and a good reminder for all of us. None of us can win the battle alone - there is no one magic bullet to fix transphobia, or one lone hero coming to save us. But every single person - every action - makes a difference.

The perfect Leslie Feinberg quote for a memorial patch...
'The sun was hot and the breeze was cool. I felt happy. Nature Held me close and seemed to find no fault with' - a quote from Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg, in a ring on a blue background, finished with the name 'Sovereign' and the dates 1989-2022

A LONG day of steaming, photography and cataloguing - but we're halfway there! It's staggering to see this all come together, even before the patches are sewn together into a quilt - the of courage, love, and beauty in these squares is a privilege to experience. Thank you! More tomorrow
A photography station rigged up with stands and lights, the camera directed at a pink patch arranged on a board on the floor. The patch is decorated with the appliqué words: 'Jesus Says Trans Rights' - in the centre of the words is a traditional image of Jesus, with the trans flag pouring from the Sacred Heart.
