The Trans Storytelling Project

Transgender Mississippians are part of our families, schools, workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities. The ACLU of Mississippi's Trans Storytelling Project centers the experiences and perspectives of trans Mississippians while connecting those stories to the rights, policies, and everyday decisions that shape people's lives. Through conversations about identity, community, advocacy, and belonging, this project explores what it means to live authentically in Mississippi and what all of us can do to help build a state where everyone is treated with dignity and respect.
