At Stonewall National Monument, the National Park Service removed the transgender and Progress Pride flags, instructing that only the traditional rainbow flag would be displayed. This action has been met with resistance, with New Yorkers bringing their own transgender flags to the site and draping them on statues and other areas. The Park Service also removed references to transgender and queer people from the monument's website

Trump Took Stonewall’s Trans Flags. New Yorkers Brought Their Own
This comes after the Trump Administration sought to expel any reference to transgender people from all federal resources, as per his January executive orders. As Erin in the Morning previously reported, one glaring example included an informational blurb about Sylvia Rivera, a trans woman of color and street queen who was among the founding mothers of the movement.

Transgender was a part of Stonewall Rebellion. Trump is trying to erase transgender from history, past and present. He'll never do it as new ones are born a part of human diversity.
