DESCRIPTION:The Trans March is a grassroots, social change event organized entirely by 
 community volunteers. You are welcome to get involved to make this year's 
 event even better!\n\nSan Francisco's first, historic Trans March in 2004 
 attracted a crowd estimated at 2,000. Last year's Trans March brought 
 together 5,000-6,000 people for an amazing community-driven grassroots 
 demonstration on the weekend of LGBT Pride. This year, we expect over 
 10,000 transgender people and allies, making it the largest transgender 
 event in history!\n\nThe Trans March is intended to:\n\n    * Demonstrate 
 that the violence and discrimination directed against the transgender 
 community will not be tolerated.\n    * Celebrate the struggles of the 
 trans community for respect, acceptance, and civil rights.\n    * Build a 
 supportive, unified trans community bringing together diverse genders, 
 ages, and ethnic backgrounds along with our allies. \n\n\n\nThe entire 
 event will be sign-language interpreted! Please enhance, translate and pass 
 this on to any groups, lists, or individuals who might be 
 interested.\n\n\nThe Trans March is produced by over 50 grassroots 
 community volunteers, with primary sponsorship from: Good Vibrations, 
 National Center for Lesbian Rights, United Genders of the Universe! 
 Horizons Foundation, San Francisco Arts Commission Sisters of Perpetual 
 Indulgence, and co-sponsorship by: Walden House, FTM International, SEIU 
 Local 790, Fresh Meat Productions, Eros, Femina Potens, Queer Cultural 
 Center, San Francisco LGBT Community Center, SF LGBT Pride Committee, and 
 the Dyke March!\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Trans March
LOCATION:Trans March!\n\nFriday June 22nd, the Friday before Pride\nDolores Park, 
 Dolores and 19th Street\nCalling all transfolks, friends, allies and 
 admirers!\n\nWe are calling for this march to demonstrate that we are a 
 significant and growing portion of the lgbtiq community; to increase our 
 visibility and presence in the tgiqlb community and the overall community 
 at large; to encourage more trans and gender-variant people to come out; to 
 build connections among ftm, mtf, bayot, crossdressers, sadhin, hijra, 
 transvestites, bantut, drag queens, drag kings, mahu, transsexuals, bakla, 
 travesti, genderqueers, kathoey, two spirit, intersex and those with other 
 labels for themselves and no labels for themselves, those who see gender as 
 having more than two options, and those who live between the existing 
 options; to support one another as a community, through all of our 
 struggles; to speak out against violence, hate, transphobia, and the 
 oppression of any and all of us under the existing social structure; and to 
 be fabulous and powerful in the company of others that are fabulous and 
 powerful.\n\nDress up, show up, bring signs, speak out, and be what 
 happens!\n\nFor more info or to volunteer please contact
