On the eve of Baltimore Pride, transgender advocates plan to march from Charles Village to Mount Vernon Friday to raise awareness of the struggles trans people face in the city.

Baltimore Trans Alliance founder Bryanna Jenkins, said the "#BaltimoreTRANSUprising" rally will be a chance to shed light on police profiling, homelessness and a lack of access to health care and employment, among other problems in the city's trans community.
