Thousands Join Protest For Transgender Rights
The Boston-area transgender community filled the streets, marching from Franklin Park to Nubian Square.
BOSTON – The voice of protest was again heard at Nubian Square Saturday, but this time another group was joining the call for justice.
The local transgender community filled the streets, marching from Franklin Park to Nubian Square, ending at the police station. The message: A demand for equality and an end to discrimination.
“After today we will no longer be silent,” said organizer Athena Vaughn."The chains that they tried to put on us are broken, and we’re no longer being shackled."
