🏳️‍🌈 Seeing a Pride Flag reminds me of the time Donald J. Trump held one upside down, alongside the harm caused by his recent policies targeting the LGBTQIA+ community.

His transphobic executive orders are a direct attack on the rights and existence of transgender and nonbinary people. LGBTQ rights are human rights, and it’s more important than ever to stand together in support. 💪🏽🏳️‍🌈
