We know we need to spend more time increasing understanding of transgender people among our friends and neighbors, in order to have a long-term chance of turning back harmful policies at the state and local level. Most Americans claim to have never met a transgender person, so we’re inviting you to an evening of storytelling as an opportunity for folks on the Seacoast of New Hampshire to connect with local transgender and nonbinary people in an inviting environment.
Storytellers will share glimpses of their lives: healthcare, schools, transition, challenges, successes, hopes, and fears. Following individual sharing, we will open the floor to thoughtful questions and reflections. Our goal is to have these stories build increased understanding and motivate attendees to take more actions to support our local transgender and nonbinary community members. We will follow up with local attendees for future events.
The art of storytelling involves crafting compelling narratives, offering new perspectives on humanity, and inspiring empathy in order to engage and connect with an audience.
Suggested age range: Adults and students 11 years old and up! Stories may include content related to medical content, alcohol use, bullying, mental health, and diagnosis. Reach out to 603 Equality if you have any questions.
We encourage you to share this invitation with friends and family who are interested in better understanding transgender and nonbinary people - or who are already ready to put their understanding into increased action for our freedom and safety.
