Trans Pride Southampton

Solidarity Statement.

Trans Pride Southampton stands in solidarity with the queer community in the USA. Who are facing growingly more blatant hostility towards particular trans people. We never thought we’d have to say this so quickly, but we must assert it is in no way fraudulent for one to embrace their queer identity and transition.

We also send our thoughts to Hungary, who has recently banned Pride events to combat “woke ideology”. Pride is a protest, and it can be a celebration of battles already won - we wish the queer communities in Hungary the best in this new battle to overcome.

These sentiments regarding queer people, or “wokeness”, are already rife in the UK. Our media already floods people with the statement being trans is an “ideology “ - we assert this has never been the case, trans people have always existed and is only political because we are politicised by the hatred and ignorance we face.

"Pride Amsterdam omarmt haar activistische geschiedenis als het uitkomt, maar trekt zich terug zodra de principes van diezelfde geschiedenis haar tot stellingname dwingen, en het allemaal ineens weer apolitiek moet zijn.

Neutraliteit is geen onschuldige keuze – het is een politieke keuze die de onderdrukking van lhbtiqa+-personen in stand houdt."

Het Parool · Opinie: ‘Pride Amsterdam zegt neutraal te zijn, maar pinkwashing ís niet neutraal’Pride Amsterdam wil zich niet uitspreken over de bekritiseerde deelname van de VVD aan de Canal Parade, omdat het evenement ‘niet politiek’ zou zijn. Volgens Rocher Koendjbiharie en Mart Kamphuis verspeelt de organisatie daarmee geloofwaardigheid.
