\u201cLet\u2019s Talk About The T\u201d Video Series Highlights Transgender People Telling Their Own Stories<\/b>
\n<\/p>\n

The first video<\/a> in a new series<\/a> from TransTech Social Enterprises, “Let’s Talk About The T,” premiered online today. The series, which is sponsored by the HRC Foundation, features a diverse cast of transgender people talking about their experiences and some of the challenges they face.<\/p>\n

“We are shifting power back into the hands of trans<\/a> people,” said TransTech Founder and CEO Angelica Ross. “Instead of others speaking for us, we are speaking for ourselves. ‘Let’s Talk About The T!’ is a project about trans<\/a> people that was created, filmed and produced by trans<\/a> people and it shows how to create more authentic representation by empowering trans<\/a> people to tell their own stories.”<\/p>\n

As we celebrate Women’s History Month<\/a>, it’s important to highlight how transgender women<\/a> of color –– like Angelica Ross –– are making history on a daily basis by fostering understanding and acceptance of transgender people.<\/p>\n
