The second annual Transsistahs and Transbrothas Conference will again be held at the Galt House Hotel in Louisville, KY.

To all prospective conference attendees and trans-allies everywhere:

In every struggle, there are as many paths to civil liberty and justice as there are opinions. From the initial formation of our conference, there have been many voices that have been opposed to our own. There are some who believe that our efforts are about self-aggrandizement and motivated solely by ego. Nothing could be further from the truth. Many of us have experienced classism and other such “isms” that have kept us apart and separate. As transpeople of color, we are doubly aware of how these “isms” can render people powerless and deny access to people and systems that would empower us. We have stated from the beginning that we are not calling for separation from our White transbrothers and sisters or from any other trans-population of color – not even from our lesbian sisters, gay brothers, and bisexual persons.
