NEW YORK — Several months after Samira, a 16-year-old Florida transgender girl, began taking gender-affirming hormones, the Florida medical board's ban on transgender youth healthcare stopped her in her tracks.
NEW YORK — Several months after Samira, a 16-year-old Florida transgender girl, began taking gender-affirming hormones, the Florida medical board’s ban on transgender youth healthcare stopped her in her tracks.
“It's been rough, but having a purpose, having the ability to fight back against that, having the drive to do that, has been great,” Samira said. Esmée Silverman, a co-founder of Queer Youth Assemble, said anti-transgender sentiment has brought her back to an “extremely dark place.” “What got me out of that dark place was my ability to start hormones and the fact that it's getting taken away from so many youth across this country is going to change lives for the worse,” Silverman said.
Silverman and Samira say they hope the march can uplift queer and trans youth by showing that the community is strong and united against the hate.
