Join the ACLU of Mississippi for the premiere of The Trans Storytelling Project, a documentary centering the experiences, perspectives, and stories of trans Mississippians.

The documentary brings these voices together to create space for trans people to tell their own stories in their own words, beyond headlines, stereotypes, and political debates.
