Join In the Wake TV's own Alisha Mess as she hits the streets to cover a powerful rally in Union Square Park. Folks came out strong to advocate for our trans youth after President Trump signed that Executive Order. You know, the one that's restricting gender-affirming care and hitting so many families hard.
Alisha was on the ground as activists, organizers, and everyday community members linked up to fight for trans rights and show some serious love and support. It was a powerful day, and you definitely want to see how everyone's coming together.
