For young LGBTQ+ Ugandans, we see you and stand with you today. This law does not speak to your value as a human being, hold your head high, lean into your community, and keep moving forward. Darkness comes before light.

Meanwhile @BBCWomansHour uncritically platforms a group with a trans exclusive agenda and nothing is said.
Trying to map out #humanitarian orgs or programs that have a focus on #DiverseSOGIESC#Inclusion?
Doesn’t matter if they’re not formalised. Size/capacity/focus/location also not important.
Interested in understanding more about who is actively trying to support #displaced#LGBTIQ+ people and what type of humanitarian assistance is being offered.
Very happy to be part of this #ISA2022 panel on theorising and building transnational feminist activism and solidarities. @wozzle93 and I are presenting an ongoing paper on cisgender and heteronormative biases in the implementation of the WPS agenda.
We stand firmly with the @LGBTfdn, @stonewalluk and all the other #trans and #lgbtq+ organisations today calling out the appalling responses from the @EHRC yesterday. Our statement is here: https://t.co/xpyXZ8q8SQ and we encourage everyone to sign the Stonewall open letter
I compiled an overview of UN programmatic and policy progress on LGBTQIA+ rights as well as for SOGIESC employees with UN entities for a small project I am carrying out for @rosaluxgeneva

Definitely need more of this! Trans, GNC, non-binary people are so much more than their gender or lack thereof. Some are truly incredible creators & artists & it's great to see these creations & works of art. Anyone who hasn't checked it out, #LoveYourGender is the tag.
Today is #LoveYourGender day. Love your gender. We love your gender. You are who you know you are, and we respect and love you. You’re amazing, and there’s a huge community here ready to support you, whenever you’re ready to let the world know who you truly are.
It’s so lovely seeing all the support for #LoveYourGender, and happily ignoring anything else being shared by all those bots and socks. We love you all. Keep sharing the #GenderJoy!
We’ve got one sure fire, cost free, accessible to anyone way: #LoveYourGender! Happy #LoveYourGenderDay everyone, and what a lovely day it is for being #inclusive & #accepting of other people. We feel less gloomy already! ☺️ https://t.co/a7F9nhuW87
@SofieHagen I’d definitely be up for reading/trying to help you write something! Consider myself to have a pretty good understanding of fatness, accessibility (and disability).. let me know if I can be of any help! ☺️
The Gender Inclusion Network (GIN) wholeheartedly supports Professor Alison Phipps who has been unjustly - and without evidence - singled out for attack in @Telegraph Critique is *not* intimidation. Protest is *not* bullying. Solidarity with all who are fighting this.
