Words by Abi Scaife
Our ninth episode of Speak Up! By Smiley Movement is focused on how we can make our world more inclusive for the trans+ community - not just in terms of general acceptance, but real, substantial change.
To that end, we invited three amazing Trans+ activists to speak with us about how we can work together to create a world that is accepting, uplifting and affirming.
We met with artist Darkwah, founder of Trans History Week, Marty Davies and H Li who works at Pride London, and they had some incredible things to say about their experience as Trans+ people.
