“We are not the problem. We are the solution. It’s time corporate America recognize the value in the trans community”

This year I had the privilege of delivering the 2015 Keynote for HRC’s CEI Awards acknowledging 366 companies who received a 100% score, based on their commitment to LGBT equality in their corporate mission and actions. While thanking them for their progress, I emphasized the fact that we’ve just begun to do the work, and that policies don’t create change, people do.   My speech was a call to action for corporations to transition from allies to advocates, taking action to open doors and opportunities for the trans community.
