Advocates for Trans Equality (A4TE) is proud to host journalist and author Nico Lang at Hive Mind Books to discuss their groundbreaking book, American Teenager: How Trans Kids Are Surviving Hate and Finding Joy in a Turbulent Era. While the media, politicians, and society at large debate how trans youth should live their lives, the voices of trans youth are rarely included. American Teenager tells the real-life stories of eight transgender, nonbinary, and genderfluid teens and their families in their own words.

Ahead of Trans Day of Visibility, we invite you to attend this event celebrating the joy and resilience of the transgender community in the face of political attacks that seek to erase us. This event will also feature a conversation between Lang and A4TE Executive Director Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen about the current state of trans the movement for trans rights in America, facilitated by activist and author Adam Eli.

 This event is free and open to the public. Space is limited, so please RSVP.
