In the face of #CDC7words & because #TransLivesMatter we're grateful for this important piece by @DrAlethaMaybank (a HIP board member) on how the medical & public health community can begin to dismantle systems of transphobia, homophobia, racism, & sexism:

My child is #transgender, confirmed by #evidencebased facts & supported by #sciencebased research. Has been since she was a #fetus. She adds to our #diversity. Her equality is an #entitlement, but bc our govt deems her invisible, shes #vulnerable to hatred & violence. #CDC7words
.@MikePenceVP reportedly asked the @CDCgov to stop using naughty words like vagina or intercourse.

I have a grant application that uses 2 of these words to be reviewed next month #CDC7words
Words are everything. They have power. You think eliminating them will help you keep yours. You will never change the power of the #transgender community or their allies. My child is not an issue for you to erase. #CDC7words @realDonaldTrump @CDCgov #BecauseElly
