Referring to people by the pronouns they determine for themselves is basic to human dignity. Being referred to by the wrong pronouns particularly affects transgender and gender nonconforming people. Happy International Pronouns Day. #InternationalPronounsDay

Y’all...today’s a historic day...we been organizing, hustling, and fighting for this for so long. Today is the hearing for the bill to decriminalize sex work in DC. A chance to fight for safety and freedom, together. Safety isn’t police...it’s community.

Did someone say shade? This year, we're serving looks and poise Gender Freedom 2.0! Join us November 22nd for all the drama and glam. #GenderFreedom2019 📷: Pride

Less talking about how much we support Black trans women and more action!

It is with great sadness we must inform community of the loss of yet another Black trans sister, Alicia Simmons. Alicia was recently found unresponsive in her apt in Philadelphia. Cause of death is not yet confirmed. We send our deepest condolences to her family & loved ones.💔

THINGS NOT TO ASK A TRANS PERSON: -Don't ask what surgeries they've had. Medical history is private. -Don't ask to know their birth name. (Never call it their real name!) -Don't ask to see photos of them pre-transition. -Don't ask about how they have sex.

It's officially Trans Awareness Week. If you are excited as we are, quote this tweet with a 💜. Happy #TransAwarenessWeek beautiful people.
