Sometimes, Gender Nation gets the opportunity to donate books that not only help prevent future bullying by fostering a more inclusive and representative school environment...but sometimes, like with this delivery to The Hueneme School District, the donation is about healing the past. We were honored to be invited by @JoyEpstein & the Hueneme School District to donate books for all of their elementary schools. In 2008, middle schooler Larry Letisha King - was shot twice by fellow classmate Brandon McInerney. Thank you Joy, for your tireless work on behalf of not only LGBTQ+ students, because the truth is, lack of knowledge breeds fear and fear breeds violence...your work benefits ALL students.Thank you for letting @gendernation be a small part of it. ……………………………………………………@hueneme_gsa @mamakeiks @morganwalshy #pridemonth #pride #loveislove #kids #education @wearehrc @eqca @pflag @hueneme2021

Repost from @the10jewelry using repost_now_app - when we openly share our personal pronouns, it helps to normalize the reality that there is a gender spectrum and it creates a more inclusive space. we created the pronoun collection as a wearable extension of this idea. these pieces not only look beautiful but we hope will expand awareness of the use of pronouns in our everyday lives. pieces are available in both gold plated and sterling silver ❤️

15% of the proceeds from the sales of items in this collection will be donated to Gender Nation. @gendernation is a 501c3 non-profit that empowers and validates children by donating lgbtq+ affirming books to elementary school libraries

“Pronouns are basically how we identify ourselve

“Pronouns are basically how we identify ourselves apart from our name. It's how someone refers to you in conversation, and when you're speaking to people, it's a really simple way to affirm their identity." - Mary Emily O’Hara communications officer from @glaad. #laurawamsley offers this great piece on #genderindentity @npr #pridemonth #pride🌈 @mamakeiks https://www.npr.org/2021/06/02/996319297/gender-identity-pronouns-expression-guide-lgbtq

Take a minute to read this heartbreaking data from Chicago Health Journal. Sadly.. these numbers from 2016 have only gotten worse. Overwhemingly, trans youth don’t feel welcome, accepted or safe in school. That’s why Gender Nation does what we do. And we won’t stop until every child knows they are beautiful and celebrated for exactly who they are. #transisbeautiful #transequality #lgbtq #equality #transgender

The elementary school libraries of Solana Beach School District are the latest to receive affirming books from Gender Nation. That’s nearly 3000 more school children who can discover messages of support and affirmation in the pages of these books. #lgbtq #equality #transkids #loveislove #pride

Today is #FollowFriday, where Gender Nation highlights a member of the LGBTQ+ community making a difference. This Friday we want to celebrate @jazzjennings_ an activist and author (one of her books is part of the collection we donate!). She has appeared on national television programs like @oprah and @abc2020 speaking about the challenges faced by LGBT young people and is a vocal advocate for trans rights. Thank you for being you, @jazzjennings_ ❤️🌈

#BehindTheScenes from one of yesterday’s deliver

#BehindTheScenes from one of yesterday’s deliveries in San Diego! It was a record-breaking day for Gender Nation: we delivered over 2,200 books to 140 schools in the @sandiegounified district.

And...we’re rolling! Today Gender Nation is making our largest book donation yet, delivering over 2,200 age-appropriate, LGBTQ-affirming books to schools in the San Diego Unified School District. With this delivery, 70,000 kids across 140 schools will have access to inclusive stories. We’ll be posting throughout the day to update you on our progress, so stay tuned! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🌈

Gender Nation supports this message from our partners at the @humanrightscampaign Parents for Transgender Equity Council. Trans kids, like all kids, deserve to be happy and live authentically. The attacks on trans kids in state legislatures across the country need to stop.

Heartbreaking. That’s the only word to describe

Heartbreaking. That’s the only word to describe what’s happening in Arkansas now. Late yesterday, Arkansas legislature overrode Gov. Hutchinson’s veto of HB 1750, making Arkansas the first state to outlaw gender-affirming healthcare for trans youth.

The first principle of the Hippocratic Oath is “do no harm.” When doctors, as guided by the state, refuse gender-affirming treatment to trans gender people, it will lead to disastrous--and sometimes deadly--consequences.

Gender-affirming care is life-saving care. If you support trans and gender-creative kids, now is the time to raise your voice and drown out the violence and bigotry with LOUD, VOCAL SUPPORT. Follow and support litigation from the @ACLU aiming to appeal this decision. Call out transphobia in your workplace, at your school, or wherever you see it. Support the trans people in your own life and beyond.

To trans youth in Arkansas: we will continue to fight for you. 🏳️‍⚧️✊

The bill that @chasestrangio called “the single most extreme anti-trans to ever pass through a state legislature” was just vetoed by Gov. Hutchinson. Thank you, Governor! Our work is not done 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️✊
