"Several LGBTQ organizations are leading a rally in Union Square on Jan. 10 in a show of support for trans youth before the Supreme Court hears oral arguments in two cases pertaining to state laws barring trans student-athletes from participating in sports. The event, which begins at 1 p.m., will be led by PFLAG NYC, the New Pride Agenda, and Trans formative Schools,"
"We met in Union Square one year ago to show our city and the world that we are strong, united, and full of love for our communities, PFLAG NYC added. We invite you back on Saturday, January 10, at 1:00 p.m. for a rally to say, no matter when or where attacks on our communities happen, we've always been here, and we'll always be here."
LGBTQ organizations will gather at Union Square on Jan. 10 at 1 p.m. to support trans youth ahead of Supreme Court oral arguments in two cases about bans on trans student-athletes. The cases include West Virginia v. BPJ, which challenges a law requiring schools to separate students by so-called biological sex, and Little v. Hecox, which targets Idaho's Fairness in Women's Sports Act that bars trans girls from girls' sports. PFLAG NYC, The NEW Pride Agenda, and Trans formative Schools will lead the rally with co-hosts including ACT UP NY, Ali Forney Center, Black Trans Liberation, NYC Pride, and the Reclaim Pride Coalition. Organizers emphasize dignity, respect, and equal opportunity for trans people and note the rally follows a similar gathering one year earlier.
