Online Event: The Power Of Us: A Discussion With Trans & GNC Leaders

May 17, 2021 - 6:30PM to 8:30PM EST

Right now, as you know, state legislatures are being flooded with anti-trans rhetoric, bills, and opposition. It is an unfortunate reality that political attacks against inclusive LGBTQ+ equality have moved from marriage for LGBTQ people to now squarely and explicitly targeting transgender and non-binary people. We see things such as rhetoric surrounding bathroom panic, trans kids in sports, and even academia. This is why we’re hosting an event for our transgender/gender non-conforming/ and gender non-binary friends that are interested in a future where federal nondiscrimination protections exist for us.
 
On May 17th from 6:30pm ET – 8:30pm ET, The National LGBTQ Task Force with our partners is co-hosting an exciting panel discussion featuring transgender and gender non-conforming/non-binary leaders from across the country. We will be touching on topics such as discrimination, personal stories, and what inclusive protections would mean for the trans and GNC community. Following the panel discussion, The National LGBTQ Task Force Action Fund along with the National Equality Action Team will host an action event after our panel to get us engaged and activate supporters across the country to get folks talking about the need for federal nondiscrimination protections.
