SMASH TRANSPHOBIA!

FIGHT FOR TRANS LIBERATION!

11:30AM JULY 4TH, PARLIAMENT HOUSE STEPS, 'MELBOURNE'

Trans rights are under attack from a bigoted far-right transphobic coalition: 'feminists' in coalition with the racism of One Nation and Trump, holding a rally at 12pm. We call for protest in love, rage and solidarity to defend trans people, and fight both transphobia and the violent, racist colonial capitalist system. We demand an end to sexism and inequality. Fight for gender freedom!

CONTEXT​

The far-right transphobe protest starts at 12pm at Parliament House steps, ‘melbourne’. They are mobilising to support anti-trans business boss Sall Grover, who has lost in the courts over offensively excluding trans women in her Giggle app. We stand with trans woman Roxanne Tickle, who fought the trans exclusion. Transphobia is a gateway to alliances with fascists.

Transphobes are coordinating cross-continent to wind back the limited trans rights we’ve collectively won. In ‘Brisbane’ / Magandjin, Pauline Hanson is a headline speaker on their July 12th protest. Hanson pushes disgusting racist policies, while cosying up to the billionaire ruling class in Gina Rinehart, who follows fascists like Trump in calling for more border violence, exploitation of workers and rolling back abortion rights.

Despite small gains we’ve won, the current system punches down so many poor and working class trans people to the margins. Transphobia comes with the colonial capitalist system enforced by violent cops, which relies on the the patriarchal cishet gender binary / nuclear family. Instead of gender fascism, we demand land back, a free Palestine, gender freedom and revolution!
