True Life: I'm Genderqueer Premiers Tonight!

November 17, 2015

MTV’s True Life: I’m Genderqueer premiers tonight and features Jacob Tobias, who spoke at Equality Federation’s Summer Meeting this July, and other young leaders who are bravely sharing their stories.

Last week Equality Federation began to formally include the letter Q in our mission, written materials, and, of course, our work. Rebecca Isaacs, Exeuctive Director said in a blog on HuffingtonPost, “For Equality Federation, adding the Q is about more than a letter. It’s about our values. We recognize that a growing number of people in our community identify as queer to best reflect their gender, sexuality, and/or politics.”
