Today's the big day, big rally for trans rights in Naarm (aka Melbourne Australia). Feeling pretty nervous tbh, never been involved in anything like this before but there's an awesome team of people involved and I'm sure they'll make sure it goes perfectly. Praying no neo-nazis or alt-right dicks show up.
Had an awesome time chatting with a non-binary presenter on community radio yesterday for their Trans Day of Audibility program where they only air trans voices. They had signs up saying no cis voices allowed, it was so cool.
Oh, and the trans fundraiser gig was awesome. Not only did I get to chat with the band I was excited to see, I managed to get one of their songs on the air.
What a ride this last month has been! I can't wait to take a break lol
I expected 4-500 people, we got 2-3,000.
It was the most empowering thing I've ever been a part of, that crowd was angry, proud and loud.
