February 8, 2025, New York, New York, USA: A demonstrator holds a sign that reads ‘TRANS PEOPLE ARE NOT DANGEROUS YOU ARE.’ Approximately seven thousand people attend a rally in Union Square Park in Manhattan protesting President Trump’s executive order which attempts to ban gender-affirming healthcare for transgender people under the age of 19, threatening to stop federal funding for hospitals providing this care. Speakers include transgender youth, parents and advocates from the LGBTQ+ community. Organizers from Act Up, Gender Liberation Movement, Transformative Schools and other groups call the demonstration the largest ever in support of transgender youth.
