Happy Valentine's Day (soon), John!

We don't believe in consumerist scams, but we do believe in trans love. This Valentine's Day, we especially want to celebrate the trans young people who have been fiercely leading all kinds of movements – from trans liberation to climate justice to the uprisings for Black lives.

We want trans youth to know that they are the universe. As bright and beautiful as the stars, just as this love letter from Nia in Brookyln suggests. (You can check out more #LoveLettersToTransPeople on our Instagram.)

Show some love today by giving to trans liberation. Donate so trans youth inherit a world that cherishes them as they should be cherished.

The light connected to the first light. The first star. The Big Bang. Our origins. You are the future revealing itself, moment by moment. You are the divine revealing themselves moment by moment. May you inherit a world worthy of your glory. Nia -- Brooklyn. #LoveLettersToTransPeople"]

 

There have been multiple legislative attacks on trans youth in the past month alone. Lawmakers want to limit access to gender-affirming healthcare in Kansas. They want to increase surveillance of young athletes, hurting all women and girls in sports, but especially trans athletes, in South Dakota and Montana.

We believe trans youth know who they are. We commit to showing up for the dignity and self-determination of trans youth.

Do you? Show your support by donating.

With love,
