Trans Rights Day of Action | Urban Abbey, OutNebraska & Strongly Worded Letters
February 4 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm CST
You are invited to join Urban Abbey and OutNebraska for a Trans Rights Day of Action on Sunday, Feb. 4th from 1 pm – 4 pm. This event will be held at Urban Abbey, located at 1026 Jackson St. in Omaha, NE.
This will be an opportunity to hear from community organizers about LGBTQ+ rights in Nebraska, find out what action items and next steps need to be taken care of to defend trans rights, and ask questions about LGBTQ+ organizing. We will then gather together to write letters to our representatives in support of our LGBTQ+ community members.
If you have further questions about LGBTQ+ issues, and especially issues of the intersections between faith and LGBTQ+ identity, a reading list will be provided for further reflection. We will also feature copies of these books in the shop for purchase.
Urban Abbey will provide a complimentary meal and water, and the coffee bar will be open for purchases. Educational materials and letter writing supplies will be provided.
