    We are delighted to share the video collage we did this year. We hope it conveys a sense of how vibrant and diverse the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia has been this year. Enjoy!!

    So many beautiful lives lost 😢🏳️‍⚧️✊

    Today we remember our murdered trans siblings. This year transphobia has claimed the lives of at least 375 trans people — the highest figure since records began. In their memory, we commit to building a world where trans people live with freedom and equality.

    It's Transgender Day of Remembrance . We remember trans folks we have lost to violence this year. Their lives mattered, still matter. 2021 has become the deadliest year on record for trans people in the United States surpassing last year's record numbers.

    On Trans Day of Remembrance, I call on states to ensure that people can live free & safe. Lack of quick, transparent & accessible legal gender recognition endangers their well-being & safety. Stalling must be overcome & steps backwards prevented.

    Far-right hate mongering is not just "folklore" of a few. It is murdering people!

    Even after years of studying homophobia, I still don't understand how love can unleash such hatred😢😢😢

    Violent groups storming the office of Tbilisi Pride, breaking windows and equipment of the members. They announced they will set office to fire. We call on police to react in correspondence with law and arrest violent groups.

    OK, to be fair there have been campaigns by MX's football team before, like this one from 2016. But never did they actually INSTRUCT fans to stop homophobic slur.

    OK, on the one hand it's a good move, on the other hand it's pretty despicable that MX's football team had to wait for the sanctions to speak up. Why not earlier? And it's all on their precious game and $. Hardly a word for insulted LGBT people.
