Allies share message of inclusion ahead of Transgender Day of Visibility
- On the Saturday before Transgender Day of Visibility, hundreds of people gathered at the Utah State Capitol, where Carter and others unveiled a new 200-foot transgender flag, made with 600 yards of fabric and 10,800 feet of thread, and marched down State Street to spread awareness and visibility.
- The events were especially meaningful given Utah's recent political climate, including House Bill 77, which bans pride flags from schools and government buildings and is set to go into effect on May 7, despite Governor Cox not signing it.
- Advocates like Kree Arais of Utah March, which stands for human rights, and Jackson Carter emphasized the importance of being a voice for those who feel unseen and celebrating transgender people as valued members of society.
- In Chicago on March 30, 2025, Christy Cox and approximately 1,000 people, led by Trans Up Front Illinois in partnership with Indivisible Chicago, rallied for transgender rights at Federal Plaza, one day before Transgender Day of Visibility, which is recognized by LGBTQ+ advocates and was created in 2010 by Rachel Crandall.
- The protests and rallies were driven by concerns over legislative actions, including those by the Trump administration and in states like Queensland, Australia, with attendees sharing accounts of trauma and discrimination and demanding the reinstatement of gender-affirming care for trans kids.
