Around 500 people turned up today at Sydney Town Hall, Gadigal Country, to protest for trans rights after a spike in right-wing, anti-trans attacks and activity in recent times.
Proceedings were chaired by Tilly Fay and Rohan, with speakers that included Jess Hooley (original 78er), Skye (United Workers Union), Liz Atkins (The Greens), King Woody (drag king artist), April Holcombe (co-convener of Community Action for Rainbow Rights), Darby King (Safe Schools) and Cassandra the Queen (drag queen artist).
The crowd then marched to the LGBTQIA+-friendly Pitt Street Uniting Church, which was recently vandalised. Reverend Josephine Inkpin spoke briefly, before the protest moved through the CBD and back to Town Hall.
The rally was organised by Rainbow Rights Coalition and Community Action for Rainbow Rights.
