Today is the annual Transgender Day of Visibility, a day to celebrate trans lives and trans people -- and to raise awareness of obstacles we still face.

"Without visibility, we feel isolated and alone; with it we feel part of something." -- Aimee Evelyn ([twitter.com profile] AimeeEvelyn202), 2020-03-30

"As we can't celebrate it by being visible out in the real world [because of the pandemic], I hope as many trans people as possible film a video or add a selfie to the hashtag when it arrives." -- Joss Prior 'Cardie P' ([twitter.com profile] joss_prior), 2020-03-29

In less positive news:

"BREAKING (BAD) NEWS: Governor Little has signed HB500 and HB509. Devastating. Targeting trans people. Hurting trans people. Why???" -- Chase Strangio ([twitter.com profile] chasestrangio), 2020-03-30

"This is devastating, and it is particularly cruel that [profile] governorlittle signed these bills on the eve of Transgender Day of Visibility.

"But we won’t give up. We have to keep fighting for trans justice and to #ProtectTransYouth. We have not come this far to only come this far."
