Because I am getting this question dozens of times in my DMs from trans people/parents... If you're trying to move for safety:
Countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France.
States: Any blue state on my risk assessment map, which I'll update post-election.

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take:
- Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump.
- Update every ID your state allows you to.
- Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

I wrote a piece about the recent events at WVU. As someone who applied to WVU because it was the affordable option, I am so grateful for the education I was able to receive and heartbroken for those who will not have that same opportunity. link.medium.com/N3RjEHsX7Cb

It’s not “WVU” making this statement. It’s the WVU Board of Governors.
Not the students. Not the faculty. Not the staff. – at Morgantown, WV

To be super clear: The rally on Saturday is organized by alumni. Alumni will be speaking & making music. It is a chance for alumni to show our solidarity as a big group. But it's a big party and everyone who loves WVU is invited! #donegiving #WVUMistake
