"The group is working to build a coalition of trans and queer
activists, anti-war activists, and women's rights activists to protest
HRC's lack of grassroots coalition building, support for pro-war and
anti-choice candidates, and support of a non-inclusive version of the
Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA).

'It's time to show HRC what real solidarity looks like," said
Trevor Wright of QueerToday.com, 'transgender and labor activists
united in San Francisco to build the largest protest ever of HRC, and
we plan to show the country Boston can too!'"
