The fight for bodily autonomy is where activists for reproductive justice, trans rights, and LGBTQ equality have common ground.
As states across the country (including North Carolina) continue to challenge, reduce, or refuse rights for all citizens, join us by sharing why freedom for every body matters to you and learn ways you can take action today.
Reproductive
justice is
community care.
Thriving Together
TRANS RIGHTS
are HUMAN RIGHTS.
Equality for All
Transgender people deserve to live authentically and access life-saving gender-affirming healthcare. We advocate for policies that end discrimination and ensure transgender individuals have the same rights and protections as everyone else.
Queer LIBERATION is Revolutionary.
Love is POWER
LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. We celebrate the diversity of love and work towards a future where LGBTQ+ people can live openly, free from fear and discrimination. Queer liberation is a movement for a more just and equitable world for everyone.
Additional Freedoms For Every Body
Disability Rights: People with disabilities must have equal access to healthcare, accommodations, and the freedom to live independently.
Healthcare Access: Quality, affordable healthcare should be a right for all, regardless of income, zip code, or pre-existing conditions.
Fighting White Supremacy: Racism is a public health crisis. We must actively work to dismantle the systemic oppression that threatens the bodily safety of Black, Brown, and Indigenous people.
Immigrant Rights: Immigrants are vital to our communities. We believe in fair and accessible pathways to citizenship and an end to harmful detention practices.
