A Trans-Walmart Moment has come without much notice, but the moment should be considered significant: Walmart has recently changed their corporate nondiscrimination policy to add gender identity.

From The Advocate's article Wal-Mart Adds Trans Protections for Employees:

    Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart has added gender identity to their list of protected categories for employees.
