Today marks the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network's Day of Silence, when students in thousands of schools raise awareness about anti-LGBT bullying and harassment by vowing not to speak all day. In solidarity, Lambda Legal hopes to increase legal protections for young transgender people by asking them to share their stories.

"Separating trans students from their peers by forcing them to use separate restroom and locker room spaces is demeaning and can be emotionally damaging. It also violates the law," Lambda Legal writes in a call to action. "We have your back. And we want to hear from you!"

If you're a trans student, consider writing to Lambda Legal. If not, spread the word.
