We have work to do to make it safe for our trans family to be visible. We have to fight for our siblings and make it so they don't have to choose between celebrating their accomplishments and protecting their family.

re: Blue Crew TDOV post

We reached out to people and were told they were concerned for their safety. Which is valid. Its scary right now for our trans family.

Picture of Blue Crew and Undertow logo. Text says "For Trans Day of Visibility, we had hoped to highlight the accomplishments of an athlete or organization. Their accomplishments on and off the field deserve to be celebrated, however, in consideration of their safety and wellbeing, we have decided to highlight the trans athlete community as a whole. They are competitors, they are teammates, and they are strong. We hope that these visible athletes and athletic organizations remind us that sports and athleticism are important to the whole trans community. Their fight, grit, and determination enrich us all. Today we say Trans Athletes Belong.

If you want, consider ordering a "Trans People Belong' t-shirt or a "trans people belong in sports flag" which both benefit the transgender law center.

Once again, Blue Crew rejects any and all racist efforts, not just in soccer, but in our society. We love our team, our city, and our neighbors too much to remain silent on this.

It is not lost on us that the name of this night club was announced just weeks after the team’s theme nights were released showing that they will not be highlighting Juneteenth this season.

Missouri has had a particularly violent history of sundown towns so it is especially disturbing for a team located in Missouri to chose to name a night club establishment for people to gather at on its grounds, after dark, Sundown Lounge.

The use of the name “Sundown” for a dance club is not only racist, but incredibly insensitive to the history of the area in which this team resides.

if you're only reporting that the IOC has banned transgender athletes, you are missing a huge part of the story: the IOC is now requiring genetic testing for ALL WOMEN ATHLETES.

Transphobia hurts everyone.

When we heard they planned on doing an episode of women's soccer in Kansas City, we immediately reached out. Knowing the history in the league and specifically the history of FC Kansas City is important so we can appreciate where we are now.
