I found this and thought that people might like it its old but maybe some might have not seen it

I hope that this sort of thing is a Good sign for the future this came about because the school district banned the reading of the book "I am Jazz" and the parents and students started a small protest and Public Reading of the Book .And the children and Staff created this Play as a further way of supporting the transgender community . I have no doubt that by creating this Play it helped the Pupils to understand what it is like to be transgendered and will lead to them being better more tolerant people in the future .Hopefully the staff and Parents have also learned something as well

It's wonderful to see that kids there age have someone that they can see and here about that is been through this too. I think this is a result to how much we have been in the news and making strides in the world. Hugs
