SYLVIA RIVERA (1951-2002)<\/p>\n

Y\u2019ALL BETTER QUIET DOWN<\/p>\n

She was a trans activist and a fighter for Gay Liberation. History has long tried to forget her name but REMEMBER HER NAME for Trans Day of Visibility and onwards. She was there for Stonewall during the riots. She founded S.T.A.R. with Marsha P. Johnson. She dedicated her life to activism and lived in poverty. Gay white men left her and other trans activists behind in the name of gay liberation, but the strides made should be devoted to the trans community. We cannot rest until trans rights are fully recognized and the violence enacted against our trans family members cease. \u201cI will not put up with this shit. I have been beaten. I have had my nose broken. I have been thrown in jail. I have lost my job. I have lost my apartment for gay liberation and you all treat me this way? What the fuck’s wrong with you all? Think about that!\u201d\u00a0#lgbtqexperiencesusa<\/a>#transgender<\/a>\u00a0#trans<\/a>\u00a0#transdayofvisibility<\/a>#activism<\/a>\u00a0#sylviarivera<\/a>\u00a0#transwoman<\/a>#gayliberation<\/a>\u00a0#STAR<\/a>\u00a0#gay<\/a>\u00a0#lgbt<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
