Holding on to the rights of trans people in the US requires solidarity with other areas under attack by Trump. Democrats Abroad shares our goal of slowing down or stopping the Musk/Trump agenda. They are asking for people to call their senators, asking them to vote no on the stopgap spending bill.
DA has a script to use with Democrats and one for Republicans in the Senate. It’s a good script but we would like to ask you to also mention trans rights when you are speaking with Democrats.
If you have ideas for what sort of actions you would like to see, especially direct actions, please leave a comment.
We are a collective of hedgehogs who have come to feel very prickly about the international rollback of trans rights.
In recent years, we’ve mostly dedicated our activities to nighttime walks in the fog, eating slugs and avoiding bonfires, but we do have a history of anti-fascist organising, especially in Austria.
Although we’ve been out of political life for many years, recently, the situation has gotten so troubling that we see no alternative to speaking up.
Trans people have the right to access healthcare and live in peace, free from discrimination. Just as hedgehogs have a right to stay out of large fires.
It’s not enough to merely survive, however. We also wish to fight for the right to party. For us and for trans people, young and old, near and far. (Just, please, maybe without bonfires.)
Or if you are going to have a bonfire, make the pile just immediately before you burn it. Really, we wouldn’t mind a bit of bonfire solidarity.
You can also help by joining our campaign. Sign up to our signal group or send an email to AB InBev. Or follow us on the fediverse to know what’s happening as we launch.
