DIVA DICTUM
THE ART OF RESISTANCE

EDITOR’S LETTER
As I write, the community is still reeling from Donald Trump’s decision to reinstate a ban on transgender people serving in the US military which was overturned by Barack Obama in 2016. Like many of you, I worried that a Trump win in the US election would have a devastating impact on the LGBT community, and it gives me no pleasure whatsoever to be proven right. It’s a frightening move which undermines the modest progress made in recent years and my heart breaks for our trans siblings, already under siege, who now find themselves as political pawns in a twisted game otherwise known as Trump’s Presidency.
