transHi! This is my first post to this community, though i've made comments here and there in the past. i'm in need of some assistance.
i'm trying to put together an informational presentation for my campus' GLBT group, Pride Alliance, about transgender issues (Tentatively titled Trans 101). i'm the only transperson in our group, and at times it seems like people don't really understand why there's a "T" in the "GLBT" spectrum. The idea i have at the moment is to open with a basic "This is what Transgender means" (exploring the many and varied answers people have to that question), then possibly moving on to some more specific issues.
i'm just one person though, and i'd prefer my presentation to be less "This is what i think it means", and have more concrete information. Does anyone have some good sources of information from professionals and activist groups that i could use for such a presentation?
Also, i'd like to include a selection of photos of transpeople, just to lend a face to what i'm talking about, and to illustrate the diversity of our group. (Most people hear "Trans" and think "Jerry Springer"... i'd like to help that stop.) If you could point me toward professionally taken photos of transpeople that i could use, it would be most appreciated.
Thanks so much!
