SUCCESS!!! WE DID IT!!!

A BIG THANK YOU to all of the volunteers, vendors, and speakers, etc who made yesterday a wonderful success. None of what happened yesterday could be done without the amazing support of the community. I was personally so impressed by the volunteers who showed up in the morning and gave it there all to the very end, you all know who you are!
On that note. We continue to tirelessly work behind the scenes, mainly to get video and images from the event out to the public.
PHOTOS: If you took photos yesterday, and would like to share them with everyone, please send them to transpride@gmail.com along with your name so I can make sure photographers are credited. I will start adding them to the transpride website http://transpridemarch.org as they come in.
VIDEO: We had a few people that videoed the event. 1) Carlyn with Your Story Matters (Thanks to her, and everyone who agreed to speak with her about your experience) Carlyn is making a documentary about the event and we will let you know when that is available. 2) Working with Carlyn were a few other volunteers who taped the rally speakers. We are working on getting that video available to you online and I will let you know when that is available too. 3) I know many others were taking video, if you put it online, ie YouTube, please let me know so that we can spread the word.
Again, THANK YOU!!

Organizing and planning the first Transgender Pride March and Rally for New England. News, updates, and discussions about planning the march.

June 7, 2008, Northampton, MA

The first New England Transgender Pride March and Rally will be held on June 7, 2008 in Northampton, MA. The event is organized by members of the trans and gender variant community, and their allies, with the intent of taking a visible and positive stand for transgender rights. The March and Rally is dedicated to diverse representation among organizers and participants. We seek to educate and build awareness of the movement against gender-based discrimination. We promote self-acceptance and acceptance of our whole identities and lives. We gather to celebrate and affirm our individuality, diversity, and strength.

The Transgender Pride March and Rally 2008 seeks to:
  • Build a community of compassionate and open-minded individuals who represent all gender expressions, and wish to unapologetically stand up for their civil and human rights.
  • Address the institutionalized and intrapersonal racism, classism, ageism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, and discrimination faced by many trans and gender variant people on a daily basis.
  • Promote the self-determination of all trans and gender variant people, in support of the International Bill of Gender Rights: http://www.transgenderlegal.com/ibgr.htm.
  • Unite with one another and allies to speak out for social, economic, and political justice of under-represented and marginalized communities, and support the right of all communities to be heard.

I know this is a month late, but thank you to everyone who helped organize the Trans Pride March and Rally.

That, and me and my SISTERS group made the front page of the North Hampton Gazette. How cool is that.

Hope to do it again next year.

OK so I'm delayed by almost a week.....but the parade and rally were the absolute most wonderful events I have ever attended! I'm from the Northcountry in NH....where there are no queer gatherings. It's very hard to even be queer in this area...let alone genderqueer!! I want to thank all of you for your support of my tranny partner and I. We're looking to reach out and become part of the trans community and are even seriously considering relocating to the Northhampton area!! We felt very welcomed by all you folks and would really like to thank you for showing us companionship and love within a community (something we don't get at home...we get snide looks and remarks instead) Please feel free to send friends requests to us (her name is Steph and she's #1 on my friends list) we would like to be included in the community!!

It's over, but I'm still smiling inside because it was just plain extraordinary. The whole day happened without a hitch, and mother nature cooperated fully. As for the people, and the energy... those that were there already know, it was magic. An incredible turnout from every point along the wide spectrum of gender and gender expression, which also included so many who are more "gender conventional" and supporting !

To all those made it all happen: the talented team of coordinators, the performances, the volunteers both in the forefront and behind the scenes, everyone who donated... and best of all, everyone who attended... your participation made the event what it was... incredible !

Our presence was strong, our message was clear. Each and every person who witnessed might just be gifted with a newer perception, or better yet, understanding of gender diversity... even if only in some small way. That makes every ounce of energy all worth while.

For some, this day was also very special, as it was another small step in "coming out". As nearly all of us had experienced, perhaps still do, a period of the "gender expression closet", never leaving the safety of closed doors long enough to show the world our inner selves, this day offered a big step to say "Hello world, I'm here, and this is what I look like!" Kudos to all those who just allowed themselves to take the leap of courage!

AAAAHH... Making history, and making our world a tiny bit more like it needs to be, is such sweetness.

The advice to all those attending the event was... "dress for hot weather"... OMFG, according to the Weather. com , that's the understatement of the year. See for yourself:

Co-sponsored by Colage, United Genders, and Our Family Coalition

Join us in Dolores Park on Sunday, May 18th, from 11am - 4pm for a potluck picnic, games, music, spoken word, and performances by trans, intersex, genderqueer, and allied community members.

Bring food to barbeque, your guitar or spoken word piece, food to share, art supplies, hula hoops, soccer balls, frisbees, magic tricks, and games to play!

This will also be a great opportunity to meet other transgender families – including transgender and gender non-conforming parents, children, prospective parents, and people with transgender parents.
COLAGE celebrates the release of its new Kids of Trans Resource Guide, a valuable publication by and for people with transgender parents! Stop by the picnic tables during the picnic to pick up your copy, meet other transgender families, and learn more about the COLAGE Kids of Trans Program.
