This is awesome!!!

"I would say that our lady that likes to play with trucks is also playing with bull.
Bull, because fear-based reasoning is no reasoning at all. It is reactive rather than pro-active. There are lots of opportunities to teach English all over the world and all over the United States, including Los Angeles.

You don't have to teach in "those environments" that you were tracking in order to be a teacher. And, there already is a United State Law about your rights - it is called the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights. It is yours - it belongs to you and to us all. You were deemed a human being of worth by another virtue."

Also, just so you know, do this:
"Design your life, then live it on your own terms. The possibilities are endless."

- thankyou for your efforts to confront your story for us. And, I would hope you know that not everyone feels the way that a few have expressed in your experiences with them.

In all hopes for your great futures,

Enda has shamed and discredited American politics and the Human Rights Campaign.

The transgender advocates who speak in this video for equal rights for all Americans are the VOICES BEING HEARD. I applaud them and their vision.

HRC's Marty Rouse states that in order for ENDA to be seriously heard in congress it has to be striped of gender inclusive language.

That was, is and will always be a lie.

ENDA in any form submitted to the Senate was doomed to fail. HRC knew that, Barney Frank knew that and contrary to HRC's claim, the 350+ groups who represent nearly every GLBT person in the United States who signed UNITEDENDA's letter of protest to the exclusion of gender language KNEW THAT.
When HRC failed to live up to a acceptable standard of conduct people suffered and died as a result. YES DIED.. HRC and Barney Frank both continue to lie and marginalize gender diverse people.

There is no remorse being displayed by either Frank or HRC, to the contrary Frank has continually uttered statements directed at the gender diverse that are intently inflammatory and hurtful. I suggest to my LGBT family that we take no excuse. I demand from HRC a accounting for this travesty. Call your local steering committee member and demand justice for you, your same sex partner and your children.
Inaction by you may result in your own family members pain.

anything that can educate people on this subjec is good I think.

Very important perspective.
Thank you for airing.

Until recently I was unaware of the inequality that transgender people face in comparison to the discrimination that gays and lesbians face. Honestly, its NOT ok anymore, to the majority of people to gay bash or to be intolerant of gays or lesbians...many young people are growing up with a knowledge of gays and lesbians and it either isnt an issue to them or it is an issue, but they are tolerant...where as that same thing isnt happening towards trans ppl. Why? i don't know, maybe the lack of conversation about it, or the fact that most people know a gay person, but not everyone knows someone who is trans...i think it is somethin that is evolving and changing...for years gays were in the shadows and they slowly came to the mainstream and i think trans people are largely still in the shadows(everywhere except west hollywood and LA :)!) its somethin we have to work to change and make sure all people are not just treated equally, but treated as any human being should, with kindness, love and understanding.
