Protest is a healthy part of an active civic society. It’s your right to protest! Protests can be emotional, powerful, and transformational—they’re a way to connect with community, express care and outrage, and demand change.

Mutual aid is a community’s collective effort to support one another and meet each other’s material needs, driven by an understanding that existing systems often fall short. It is not charity—it’s a practice of shared responsibility and deep care.

The need for global solidarity is especially true for trans, queer, and gender-nonconforming communities. We are committed to freedom and self-determination—and LGBTQI+ communities exist around the world.
