To our fellow trans and gender div...erse friends, pals, family, EVERYONE, we hope you have the most amazing week. Seriously. Revel in and celebrate your identity, your journey, yourself because we will be! And to all you trans allies out there? And soon-to-be allies? Time to kick off a week of learning, reading, conversation-starting, of levelling up of your allyship. How can you advocate for the trans and gender diverse community? How can you be a visible ally? How can you make your spaces/community/office/workplace/classrooms safer and more inclusive for TGDNB people? It's more important than ever to celebrate trans pride and champion trans allyship and it's a job for everyone. We have a whole week up our sleeves, so believe us there's totally still time to get involved.

03.01.2022 Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia and Transphobia. On this day, 31 years ago, homosexuality was removed from the World Health Organisation's classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. It is a timely reminded that many advances in LGBTIQ+ issues are only recently won, can easily be lost and that there is more to be done. The Rainbow Ranters stand with pride to elevate the voices of the LGBTIQ+ community and to help stamp out homophobia, biphobia, interphobia and transphobia.
