On Tuesday night’s “Centering Trans Voices: A Panel on Lived Experiences Advocacy” event, students and professors gathered to share their narratives, perspectives and insight on trans experiences in light of anti-trans activism.
 
Hosted by the Queer & Trans Resource Center, the event occurred at the approximately same time as Turning Point USA’s event hosting Riley Gaines for the second time. Tria Rosa Valbuena, assistant director of the QTRC, said that the event was intended to provide a space for an alternate form of protest without further inciting conflict.

“To be clear, the intention of this event is, of course, there is a benefit of providing an alternate form of protest that Turning Point USA can’t utilize,” Valbuena said. “We want to provide an informal protest that doesn’t allow for direct conflicts that could cause people harm or incite further conflict, further media drama. We want the attention to be on the education and positivity.”
