1./ It's #TransAwarenessWeek; the new global festival of religious belief; a Gender Identity X-mas that celebrates performative "kindness" that's not to be confused with the similar but totally different Spring festival of #TransgenderDayofVisibility.🤷♀️👇
2./ It was David Hume who argued all religious systems require belief in miracles and vice versa. "I never read of a miracle in my life that was not meant to establish some new point of religion”. So what miracles might be at the heart of this newly established faith? 
3./ Hume argued a miracle is immune from Reason (or dull facts). So this week will climax with #TransgenderDayofRemembrance, a sombre kind of Kumbh Mela when facts will be scattered to the wind to support a claim immune to Reason and rich in sacrificial religious overtones.👇

With no targeted relief by the government so far, except in Kerala, the #transgendercommunity in India is facing discrimination even in our fight against #COVID19.
On International #TransgenderDayOfVisibility, we call for more inclusive measures from the government.

The #COVIDー19 pandemic has heightened prejudices against #transgender persons, making it even more difficult for them to access food supplies, medicines or approach the authorities for help. Many also fear eviction from their homes. #TransgenderDayOfVisibility #ProtectEveryone
With understaffed, over-worked public hospitals, there is a concern around the accessibility to Antiretroviral therapy (ART) that HIV+ patients need each month. The anxiety is aggravated by a #lockdown that makes it difficult to reach #hospitals. #TransDayOfVisibility #COVIDー19
