Culture shifts when teams are prepared and well-resourced. Whether we create or compile them, we never gate-keep.
Please utilize what you need to get started.

Trans Love in the face of Hate
When you hear people spouting these lies, please think of your queer friends and family. Do not stay silent. Expose the lies and the hatemongering. Embrace queer people in your schools and workplaces. Shut down harassment. Remind people of love.
Effects of Transphobia and Legislated Hate
There’s still a huge swathe of the country where anti-trans bills are going into effect, including in Missouri. There are, nationwide, 79 bills which have passed this year to target trans folk. It’s dismaying.
The Personal, being Politicized
I highly recommend giving this your full attention: Disclosure: Trans Lives on Screen.
Transgender Rights
Hateful people are passing waves of anti-trans bills in sports, as well. They’re passing laws trying to say that we can’t talk about queer people in school, despite the fact that we talk about straight people in school every day, without any accusations of indoctrination into a “cisgender ideology.”

How to Fight White Supremacy… with Agile?
So, you can’t really get rid of white supremacy just by adopting Agile methods and frameworks, but you can use Agile structures to support anti-bias, anti-racism, and pro-inclusion and equity work individually, communally, and systemically within your organization. They all need to be a part of the picture.
Transgender Day of Visibility
Every year on March 31st, it’s the Transgender Day of Visibility! If you didn’t catch it last year, we did a video AMA with Linet interviewing me (Alexis) about some of my experiences as a trans woman. I also wrote three articles about it in the Calico Medium blog.
Transgender Day of Remembrance
Tomorrow, November 20, is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. It’s a day when we remember the lives of trans folk who have been murdered for one simple thing - being trans. We also, on this day, recognize the ongoing violence against transgender people.

2021 Trans Day of Visibility AMA
Alexis asked folks to ask her anything they wanted in the leadup to the Trans Day of Visibility and she’d be visible about it — and they could ask anything they wanted, even if it would be normally be invasive or disrespectful to ask, as long as it was in good faith.
