2023-03-31T04:00:00Z→2023-03-31T04:00:00Z is International Transgender Day of Visibility! It’s dedicated to celebrating transgender people and raising awareness of discrimination faced by transgender people worldwide, as well as a celebration of their contributions to society.
There are several very important FIRST-specific threads that we can keep visible right now:
- Trans students and mentors are not safe at FIRST Championship
- Trans students are more vulnerable than ever (CW:gun violence and transphobia)
- FIRST HQ and Texas Champs
Another great way is to support LGBTQ+ of FIRST!
And there are many ways to celebrate inclusive of but not specific to FIRST! My hometown has its own list, which includes learning about history, diversity, and terminology.
Have a great day, everyone!
