  1. “I’m really interested in having these educators... be able to build networks and relationships, share strategies and resources for how to respond, combat these really anti-trans and limiting policies for educators.”

  2. Updated SOGI GIS trend radar: The #SOGI-#OSIG GIS Technology Specialist Group has released version 2.0 of their interactive GIS #TrendRadar at gistrends.ch, classifying 40 technologies and concepts into “Established”, “Emerging”, and “Descending” levels of maturity. Each entry...

  3. Looking at the European Citizens’ Initiative for a “Ban on conversion practices in the European Union.” I don’t understand what this part means, and sort of wonder if the organizers do:

    “Furthermore, to fight against the legislative moratorium, the Commission should also enforce a non-binding resolution calling for a widespread ban of conversion practices in the EU.” eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/

    What moratorium is that? How do you “enforce” a non-binding resolution?

To turn the culture war around, the #DEIA #TRANS #SOGI communities must be highlighted through visibility, solidarity & #UNITY. Nonviolence is essential & non-negotiable.

  6. Since the UCP took power they have pushed the idea that acknowledging the existence of LGBTQ+ people is "inappropriate" for minors to hear about. This next round of legislations from Smith's government will make teachers fear that they are breaking the law if they acknowledge such people. Creating such ignorance in our youth is deadly, and will cost many their lives. I am devastated by what is happening in this Province.

  7. CW: Horrible people being mean.

    "A young group of students told CTV News they were preaching the gospel.

    “We’re here to tell people that there’s only two genders,” said Juha, a Grade 8 student.

    “To tell people that LGBTQ is bad,” said Juyoung, a Grade 5 student."

    And they claim we indoctrinate. These are words their parents taught them to say on a subject that has never had any impact on them.

  8. A dozen #teachers from the #GreaterVictoriaTeachersAssociation are expected to show up for a #rally supporting the #LGBTQ+ community at the #BClegislature on Friday.

    The rally is one of a series of events across #Canada that day to counter what local organizers from the groups #1MillionVoicesForInclusion and Finn’s Future call the “transphobic rhetoric” of a previous 1 Million March for Children, which opposes teaching on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity or #SOGI in schools.

    The teachers will be advocating for SOGI education prior to the noon #Celebration of #QueerExistence rally.

    SOGI in schools has generated protests in #BritishColumbia which #GVTA president Carolyn Howe said was part of the reason the #BCgovernment recently brought in rules to keep protesters off school grounds.

    She said she doesn’t know of any such protests at local schools, but noted there has been “a worrying uptick in very vocal opposition to -inclusive practices around #GenderDiversity, both in schools and in the wider community.”

    “Victoria schools have #queer staff, parents, students and we want everyone in the #2sLGTBQIA+ community to know we stand together.”

  9. Had a great time at #PAA2023 this past week! It was my first time and didn't know what to expect but it was great!

    Got to present my work on #geography methods for access to #genderaffirmingcare in Texas

    Chaired/organized two panels on #SOGI #demography that were standing room only (like 50-75 people!)

    Met a bunch of new colleagues and friends

    and now there's talk of a #queer #trans demography affinity group :transgender_flag: :nonbinary_flag: :progress_pride: :bisexual_flag: 🥰
