International Transgender Day of Visibility events take place in D.C.
The nation’s capital on Sunday hosted a series of events coordinated by Trans USA National Pageantry and the National Center for Transgender Equality to honor the International Transgender Day of Visibility.
One of the day’s main events was the TRANSform the Vote rally, which took place on the National Mall. Organized by the National Center for Transgender Equality in partnership with Queer Equity Institute, the rally aimed to bring together individuals from all walks of life to celebrate transgender liberation, address issues of violence against the trans community and promote civic engagement.
Elected officials, activists, and artists who participated emphasized the importance of unity and advocacy within the trans community.
TRANSform the Vote initiative is a nationwide movement of trans people and allies who want to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
