“Preventable Loss: Justice for Nex Benedict Requires Safer Schools” – GSA Network
“GSA Network, with a mission to support TQ2S+ students in creating safer schools, firmly condemns any form of violence and discrimination that isolates and harms young people. Nex Benedict’s short life underscores the importance of fostering a school environment that protects the rights and well-being of all students, regardless of their gender identity.”

“The first thing I noticed about them was how they were so authentically themselves, and weren’t afraid to stick up for themselves or for someone else. Even though I’m older than them, I looked up to that and I admired that in them. “
“I will never understand how our government can look at trans people’s joy and try to keep that from them just because they don’t understand who we are. That will never ever ever ever make sense to me because when I see someone living their life, that is beautiful to me. I wish as a kid I could see someone other than Him from the Powerpuff Girls or the people like me who were getting made fun of. I wish I saw someone walk down the street with all this glamour and all this opulence and all this gender non-conforming weirdo alien living!”
