This year, Glenn Youngkin's DOE attacked LGBTQIA+ students. Motivated by his own political aspirations, Youngkin released new guidelines that forcibly out Queer students, misgender us, and ban transgender students from using the correct bathroom. Youngkin is trying to erase our existence and leave us vulnerable to abuse, depression, harassment, and hate.
Students aren't taking these attacks lying down. Pride Liberation led more than 12,000 students in walkouts in 100 schools in districts across Virginia.
We're fighting back against these regulations because we know we can create inclusive schools that give everyone a voice, allow students to thrive, and cultivate citizen-leaders. But we need your help. Can you consider donating to support students organizing for inclusive schools?
