Pride was a riot, New York’s Stonewall Inn its birthplace in 1969. Marsha P Johnson and Stormé DeLarverie are just two of the Stonewall trans trailblazers who ensured the T was a vital part of our LGBTQ+ Pride movement. Yet today the world is becoming an increasingly hostile place for trans people. This Brighton Pride LITM and 1BTN stand with the trans community in the fight for true equality. It’s time to be allies. It’s time for community. It’s time to stand together and #protectthedolls

If you can, please support The Good Law Project Trans Fighting Fund as they challenge the Supreme Court’s decision to tear up the Equality Act and destroy the lives of trans people across the UK. https://goodlawproject.org/campaign/trans-fighting-fund/
