Response
to the BTIU Press Conference held Tuesday April 26th,
2016 at The British Colonial Hilton
Nassau, Bahamas - Representatives
and Members of the BTIU (Bahamas Transgenders
& Intersexes United), in their Press Conference earlier this morning at the
Hilton Hotel, publicly highlighted
and voiced their
thoughts and concerns regarding their treatment
and identity in The Bahamian Society.
It is made quite clear that although
these individuals are equal in education, nationalism, heart, spirit, biology,
culture, dreams,
etc. to any other
Bahamian resident and citizen, they are disenfranchised simply because they are
uniquely blessed in body and identity.
The Society Against Stigmatization &
Hate (SASH Bahamas) is a major proponent of equality across all communities,
both minor and major, that reside in these waters, not excluding Transgender
and Intersexual Inhabitants.
As our belief is in a Bahamas where all lives reap
globally holistic (legal, cultural, psychological, etc.) rights and respect, so
is our unwavering declaration that the BTIU has an aide in SASH Bahamas to
actualize its positive mission and vision for transgenders and
intersexes.
