LAUNCHED: "The Trans 100"

Last month GLAAD president Herndon Graddick declared his organization's focus on transgender equality. Today GLAAD points us to the launch of the "Trans 100," a listing of transgender activists working to advance the cause across the nation.

GLAAD is proud to sponsor the inaugural Trans 100,and honored that GLAAD board member Jenny Boylan was included. "The Trans 100 will bring much-needed visibility to the critical, grassroots work that trans people have been doing in communities across the country for years," said Wilson Cruz of GLAAD. "While media coverage so often misses the mark on accurate portrayals of trans people, the Trans 100 is changing the game by sharing the inspiring and diverse stories behind trans advocacy."
