The Advocate — have signed on to an open letter supporting transgender and nonbinary people.The letter, spearheaded by GLAAD and trans activist Raquel Willis, former executive editor of Out magazine, was released today to coincide with Transgender Day of Visibility and the final day of Women’s History Month.
It comes at a time when the rights of trans people are under attack, with legislation in states across the nation seeking to keep trans females out of girls’ and women’s sports, deny gender-affirming health care to trans youth, or oppress trans and nonbinary people in other ways.“Trans women and girls have been an integral part of the fight for gender liberation,” the letter reads.
