Holiday: Trans rights are human rights

Trans rights are human rights 

Trans Pride Axe: Double-bit felling axe with the trans pride flag on the head.

The current American political climate is deeply problematic, so it is important that we stand up for the rights of people who are under attack.

Trans rights are human rights.

Protect trans kids.

Gender isn’t a binary.

If you have an issue with any of that, find a different place to be.

Since you’re here, please consider supporting trans people:

Trans Life Line, a support hotline run by and for trans people:  https://translifeline.org/donate/ 

The Trevor Project, suicide prevention and crisis support for LGBTQ+ people: https://give.thetrevorproject.org/campaign/692681/donate

Be excellent to everyone.

Holiday: A shield for pride

 Holiday: A shield for pride.

Pride Shield: Let shield be a reminder that we each have the responsibility to use whatever privilege and power we have to protect and empower others to live their best and truest lives.

LGBTQ+ individuals often cannot rely on the comfortable structures of society to protect them from harm. In fact, many societal norms do harm to LGBTQ+ individuals and communities.

It is everyone’s responsibility to stand up to hate, intolerance, and apathy whenever it appears. Those of us with privilege and status have to do the work to listen to and raise up voices that have been oppressed and ignored.

LGBTQ+ rights are human rights.

Be excellent to everyone.

I'm not an artist: Banner Spear for Pride

Fly the pride flag high with this banner spear to honor the end of Pride Month.

Pride is a celebration that started as a protest. People fought and continue to fight for the right to be their truest selves. I'm cis-gendered and heterosexual so I never had to fight for the right to be my honest self, but I support and celebrate pride for the work others had to do. We should all support and celebrate pride for the same reasons.

I found hearing a person tell their own story was very helpful. I recommend spending some time listening to the stories and perspectives of others here.

Be excellent to everyone.
