“Sylvia and Marsha were among mothers and fathers of movement, but they were also ejected from the movement in 1973 when the gathering leadership at the time determined that for the strategy that they were pursuing, it was important to look like everybody else. This is largely a white, male leadership — cisgender entirely,” said France. “They felt that if they jettisoned people who were challenging standards, they would have a better chance of gaining their rights. It was really a craven move that distanced the Ls and Gs from Ts. That was an injury to Sylvia and Marsha that Sylvia never really recovered from. She took that anger and disappointment with her to the grave.”

Join us for a special movie night hosted by Salisbury TransLiance, a welcoming and inclusive community for individuals of all gender identities. This event is open to everyone interested in exploring and celebrating gender diversity. We will be screening a thought-provoking film that highlights different aspects of the transgender experience, gender fluidity, and the beauty of gender diversity. As always, friends and allies are encouraged to attend to show their support and learn more about the LGBTQ+ community. Popcorn and refreshments will be provided as we come together for an evening of education, empathy, and empowerment. Don't miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and contribute to a more inclusive society.
