Authentic Selves is an exhibition with a companion book featuring photographs and interviews with people of all ages who are trans, nonbinary and gender fluid along with some of their family members. Through first-person accounts and beautiful images, this exhibition seeks to challenge damaging myths and stereotypes about trans and nonbinary people.
Authentic Selves explores the many aspects of gender identity and variance by sharing these important ground-breaking stories, which celebrate a range of views, opinions and experiences that are unique and empowering to trans and nonbinary people. By encouraging people of all ages to affirm and appreciate diversity, Authentic Selves contributes to the process of dismantling the destructive power of prejudice and intolerance. As a remarkable tool designed to prevent bullying and increase empathy and connection, Authentic Selves will hopefully help make the world a safer place for all people.
Authentic Selves was curated and developed by Family Diversity Projects.
