#Pride Recommended Viewing: How to be a trans ally

To wrap up my #Pride posts, I am focusing on the trans community. Although transgender folks are the "T" in LGBTQIA+, their needs are often forgotten (or ignored, frankly) in discussions of diversity and inclusion. These videos give some tips and insight about the trans community, especially regarding the workplace:
