This is HUGE.
If I am reading this correctly, this is inclusive of all employees who identify as transgender, and not just federal employees. Wonderful. Thank you Transgender Law Center.

The challenge: Don’t use any gendered bathrooms or change rooms for the month of April.
What are “gendered bathrooms”? Gendered bathrooms are designated for “men” or “women” by a sign. This challenges includes ALL multi-stall and single-stall washrooms, and the bathrooms at work, schools, libraries, bars/restaurants, and everywhere, really.
There are multiple purposes for this challenge:
1) To give people who don’t find going to gendered bathrooms a difficult/unsafe experience a small idea of what it is like for trans and gender variant people to navigate this world. Hopefully, with some real life experience, you will have a broader understanding of how gendered this world really is. But,
DOING THIS DOES NOT GIVE YOU AUTHORITY TO SAY WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE TRANS OR GENDER VARIANT.
2) To inspire people to fight for more gender neutral bathrooms.
Tips:
- Don’t drink a lot of liquid if you are leaving the house for long periods of time
- Try to figure out where some gender neutral bathrooms are in your town/city, and plan your day around using a gender neutral bathroom.
- Remember, you can use gendered bathrooms again in May. Some people can’t.
And, even if you really have to go to the bathroom, try to not see gendered bathrooms as a possible place to go.
If you are interested, feel free to write your experiences down and send them to gnbchallenge@gmail.com. With your permission, they will be included in a zine on the topic of gendered bathrooms.
We also recommend fighting for gender neutral bathrooms in one (or more) public space(s). Often the fight for this aspect of bathroom accessibility is only fought for by trans and gender variant people; It would be nice if other people fought for it too.

Gay Hate Grim Reaper
(Video description: a street activism video of a person dressed in a Grim Reaper costume in various urban locations, featuring the surprised reactions of people all set to typical “creepy” piano music. During the latter part of the video we see the Grim Reaper handing out small business cards that say ‘you are the victim of a hate crime’, followed by a statistic related to hate crimes against gays and lesbians [hate crime statistics provided by the FBI]. At the end of the video is the tagline ‘hate is scary’.)

woot woot! way to go Athens!
I’m super excited that I got to be involved in this project.
All of you should go get your portrait taken if they’re coming to your town.
The organizers are super friendly and personable and totally made me feel at peace the second I walked up to them. I was really nervous, and was only able to get away from work for a second to go take the picture and then I had to leave, so I went alone. My social anxiety made me psych myself out, but it was really no big deal.
I wish I could’ve hung out with them for a bit and talked about what its been like to see the gays of this country. That kind of shit is right up my alley. [:
