Πολλές προσωπικότητες έσπευσαν να εκφράσουν στα social media τη στήριξή τους στην LGBTQ κοινότητα, αλλά και την αντίθεσή τους στην επίθεση που ετοιμάζει η κυβέρνηση Τραμπ, σχετικά με τον νομικό ορισμό του φύλου (gender).
Μέσα σε λίγες μόνο ώρες, ένα κύμα από εκατοντάδες φορείς, διάσημες προσωπικότητες και απλούς χρήστες, με τα hashtag #WontBeErased και #TransRightsAreHumanRights έστειλαν το δικό τους μήνυμα στον Λευκό Πύργο.
Μεταξύ αυτών ξεχωρίσαμε τη Lady Gaga, τη Lucy Hale, την Emma Watson, την Charlize Theron, τη Janet Mock, την Wanda Sykes και την Laverne Cox.
Η Lady Gaga
The government may be living in an alternate universe, but we as a society & culture know who we are and know our truth and must stick together and raise our voices so we can educate them about gender identities. #TransRightsAreHumanRights#WontBeErased

While today you might feel unheard or unseen, know that this is not the reality of humanity. This is another display of leadership being driven by ignorance.#TransRightsAreHumanRights#WontBeErased

We must not give up the fight. But in the face of this affront on my existence and the existence of my community I choose love not fear. We exist and always have.
