Honoring the Legacy of Georgina Beyer, the First Openly Transgender Member of Parliament: Advocating for Trans Rights..

Today, we mourn the loss of Georgina Beyer, a trailblazer in the trans community and the world’s first openly transgender member of parliament. Beyer’s groundbreaking achievements left an indelible mark on the world and continue to pave the way for future generations. Her legacy serves as a reminder that we still have much more work to do in the fight for trans rights.

Georgina Beyer was a force to be reckoned with, overcoming profound adversity throughout her life to become a political icon. She served as a member of parliament in New Zealand for two terms and was a powerful advocate for the LGBTQ community. Beyer’s passing is a devastating loss, but we will continue to honor her in our ongoing mission to fight for justice and equality for all. Rest in power, Georgina Beyer.
