In Victoria, we're celebrating a historic IDAHOBIT, with every council proudly flying the rainbow flag. This unparalleled show of solidarity and pride, despite the hate and bigotry, demonstrates the power of our unity in our journey towards a more inclusive Victoria.
Georgie Stone is one of the most incredible Victorians. I first met her back when she was in Year 10. And she's packed in more than your average high school kid since then.
"Trust us when we tell you who we are" @georgiestone16. The 2nd trans person, and youngest ever to addrss the National Press Club. #auspol
At 12:30 today, @georgiestone16 OAM, @transcend_australia Patron, is scheduled to deliver a speech at the National Press Club of Australia in Canberra. This is a significant and historic moment for our communities. #transrightsarehumanrights
Today we stand in solidarity with trans and gender diverse people on Trans Day of Visibility. We are proud to reclaim the 6th step of the Victorian Parliament, the same step that Nazis saluted to hate and bigotry. We stand on this step in the name of justice and visibility. #TDOV
Victorians should never feel unsafe for being who they are. What happened in Melbourne on Saturday outside Victoria’s Parliament was a display of hatred, bigotry, transphobia and antisemitism. Read our joint statement: lnkd.in/gD95Dx86
“Fabulousity” is how Commissioner for LGBTIQ+ Communities Dr Todd Fernando described Victoria’s Pride Street Party, and we totally get why. Come join us for a 90-second highlights reel of one very fabulous ten-hour street party 🌈
Our communities thank you for your on going support Minister @ShingvWorld!
