Happy Women’s History Month from all of us at The Center! This month and every month, we are not just celebrating and remembering—we are resisting, because our history and our community’s history-makers are under attack. Transgender women, particularly Black and Brown trans women, face heightened risks of violence and systemic neglect, fueled by an administration that refuses to recognize their humanity. Join us at The Center in celebrating their legacy, and impact, and help us protect their future.
