The attacks on our communities don’t happen in a vacuum.

They are the result of choices made by people in power. From targeting trans young people and undermining local protections to failing to fully protect communities from hate, MAGA extremism continues to shape policies that affect how LGBTQ+ North Carolinians live, learn, work, and move through our state. But 47 years of organizing has taught us something—when our communities come together, we build power. We’re counting down 47 ways MAGA extremism hurts North Carolina—and reminding ourselves why the fight for a North Carolina where all of us can live openly, safely, and authentically continues. For 47 years, Equality NC has fought back, organized our communities, and built LGBTQ+ power across our state. Help us keep that work going. 🏳️‍🌈 Give $47 today in honor of 47 years of Equality NC—and help power the fight for what comes next: https://equalitync.org/fight/
