ABOUT US
By Sara Jezik 28 Mar, 2023
In 2009, a transgender woman named Rachel Crandall-Crocker made a Facebook post encouraging people to organize in their home towns to celebrate being transgender. Until this time the only day where the transgender community came together was during Transgender Day of Remembrance, memorializing transgender murder victims. Crandall-Crocker organized a panel outside of Detroit where she lived and encouraged people to come. Her post encouraged people to see her panel and she hoped that others would hold their own events celebrating being transgender in their own communities. Today, March 31 is recognized by millions of people across the world. LGBTQIA+ organizations recognize Transgender Day of Visibility with community gatherings, panels, and celebrations. With legislation in 44 state governments attempting to end trans youth access to life-saving medical care and limiting their participation in sports, trans youth now more than ever need to see other transgender individuals celebrating being transgender and persevering through what the community is going through.
