Oh my god. They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service. "Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights" WOW.

The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

There are USAID project reports that are so classified that they don't even show up in official lists of USAID publications, because they contain details about covert operations or information that puts aid workers at risk of physical harm (ie women in countries where women have no rights)
