LGBTIQ

The LGBTIQ community are experiencing ongoing legislative and political attacks on our rights, it is as important as ever that we publicly and collectively raise our voices against these for Mardi Gras 2022. This calls for a protest to kill the bills and for LGBTIQ liberation, not just a ticketed event at SCG.

At Mardi Gras 2022, join us on Oxford Street to say: No bigotry! No right to discriminate! We want LGBTIQ liberation!

We meet, protest and organise on the stolen lands of the Cadigal People of the Eora Nation and stand in solidarity with First Nations people. We acknowledge that the struggles faced by transgender people disproportionately affect Indigenous trans people, Sistergirls & Brotherboys due to the ongoing effects of racism and colonisation.

Join Trans Action Warrang to rally for Trans Day of Visibility 2020. March 28, 2pm at Town Hall. Route, speakers and accessibility info to come very soon.

Stonewall Uprising is a 2010 American documentary film examining the events surrounding the Stonewall riots that began during the early hours of June 28, 1969.

Stonewall Uprising concludes with an examination of the aftermath of the rioting, including the energising of the LGBTI community as a political force and the establishment of Christopher Street Liberation Day, the genesis of gay pride parades in the United States.

The Religious Discrimination Bill is a vile piece of legislation that will enshrine the right for a tiny bigoted minority to discriminate against LGBTI people.

Don't let the Liberals pass this appalling bill. We need to keep up the fight against these privileged right wing politicians and lobby groups. Join this protest to tell any politician supporting this bill that we don't accept their bigotry. Stand up and say NO to discrimination.
