In honor of #PrideMonth, 50% of all purchases made during the month of June will be donated to @TRANSBarriers. We are deeply saddened by the hardships, aggression, hatred, and dehumanization that our trans brothers and sisters face and would like to help out where we can.

The conversation doesn't end here—we will continue to learn from organizers, advocates, and community members most impacted. And from philanthropic partners who are committed to sharing and building power. #Pride4Liberation

We must start recognizing, supporting, & celebrating Two Spirit people. We’ve been on this land since time immemorial & have been resisting bi/trans/homophobia since 1492. #TwoSpiritNation #WeAreStillHere newnownext.com/pride-two-spi…

"We would see more money going into efforts supporting those who are low income, incarcerated, homeless, and sex workers."—read @RaquelWillis_ op-ed in @outmagazine on who should be elevated during Pride: out.com/pride/2019/5/31/50-y… #Pride4Liberation

It means highlighting the incredible work of marginalized trans women such as that of Ana Andrea Molina, one our incredible members who's one of four trans women of color serving as honorary pride marshals in Houston this year: outsmartmagazine.com/2019/06… #Pride4Liberation

A2: Marsha & Sylvia founded STAR & used sex work to resource their organizing work. 50 years later, this remains the reality of sex worker-led organizing. Less than $1M in grants went to sex worker organizing in 2017 despite growing violence and oppression. #Pride4Liberation

"My hope in the next 50 years is that black trans folk are offered the same resources as most folx expect: family, shelter, medical care; that we move past just survival & are able to reach for our dreams."-@janetmock w/ @RaquelWillis_, Tracey "Africa" Norman, @NYCPride

Ready to talk about Pride? We’re about to get the #Pride4Liberation Twitter chat started with @3Wave and @LGBTfunders! Join the conversation and share the organizing funders need to support, and practices you’ve used in your institution to show up for LGBTQ communities.

I wrote about TRANScending Barriers, one of only a few re-entry programs in the U.S. that helps formerly incarcerated #transgender people obtain temporary housing, government-issued IDs and resources like food and clothing. #LGBTQ @NBCOUT @TRANSBarriers nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/…
