Community Quote by Sarah McBride

“Whenever you tell a group of people that they can't use bathrooms, or they can't access spaces that other people use, that is dehumanizing. It is discriminatory, and it reinforces the stigma and the prejudices that the transgender community already faces.” quote by Sarah McBride — Download Open image
