Hello people of Seattle! Today we are calling an Emergency Assembly to discuss how we can protect our community from the fascists across the country, trying to destroy us from another Capitol Hill. The trans community across the country is facing a genocide not seen since the fall of Weimar Germany and the burning of the first gender clinics. The time has come for us to come together and make a stand against Fascism. To make a stand for our siblings living terrified across the country. Youth GAC bans are associated with a 72% increase in suicide rates, and they wont stop with children.Trumps deranged and cruel legislation will kill tens of thousands of trans people across the country. The time has come to stand up to the party of DERANGED CHILD KILLING FASCISTS.  We here in Seattle have a chance to build something to save our siblings stranded in enemy territory. To save those who do not know if they will be arrested for using the fucking bathroom. I am coming to you all today to tell you its possible to save them if we ORGANIZE RIGHT THE FUCK NOW. Knockout Initiative spun up fucking 3 months ago. In that time we have rescued people living in hellish conditions living in fear of draconian legislation. Nia (point to her) was the first person we evacuated. She was HOURS away from being made homeless by bigoted family. She and those like her need your help RIGHT NOW. If you have a spare bedroom clean it out RIGHT NOW. If you can offer transport to those in need the time has come to prepare RIGHT NOW.  We built KOI starting with nothing but anger. If we can build this in 3 months then NOBODY HAS AN EXCUSE to not organize to fight this right now. It wont just be the trans community that is under threat either.  The hispanic community? Workers? Teachers? They are being attacked too. ICE grabbed a mother and her child in Milwaukee. They were fucking US citizens. The spending freeze turned off medicaid for a day, 1 in 5 americans are on fucking medicaid. Here in seattle, in the International district a few days ago, some fascist fucks sprayed ink all over a display about the japanese internment. They wrote fucking bible quotes over it. My grandfather was fucking 6 years old when the US government came and forced him and his family to live in horse stables, before carting them off to the desert to live behind machine guns and barbed wire. My great aunt died at Manzanar. She was a fucking infant. Trump is trying to do it again. America is building another concentration camp, this time in guantanamo bay. He tried to reopen one during the last admin. IT. MUST. NOT. HAPPEN. AGAIN. The trans community stands against fascists. Listen to my fellow speakers advise and help us build something that can make a stand against the oncoming horror Join banners with us and together we may one day soon fly them high over that other capitol hill, and show those fucks that WE WONT LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN.
