Freedom to Be, the new ACLU campaign



'Freedom To Be' is an initiative led by American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to center the voices and experiences of trans people in America through storytelling and the creation of a large monument to be displayed on the National Mall in Washington D.C. in 2025 for Trans Day of Visibility

The 'Freedom To Be' campaign shows transgender people and their families from across the country finding joy and community, grounded in the basic principle that we all deserve the freedom to control our own families, bodies, and lives.

It will be a year-long, multimedia, multi-platform campaign, with a focus on long- and short-form video content, including a portrait series of trans people, digital and billboard ads, art installations created by and for trans people that will blanket the National Mall next year, and call to action surrounding a pledge to support trans youth.

The campaign couldn’t come at a more important time. The Skrmetti Supreme Court case could affirm Tennesse’s ban on gender-affirming care, eroding the medically necessary care that many trans youth depend on.

Fighting for the freedom to be loved, to be safe, to be trusted with decisions about their own health care. Watch their storytellers and how they are advocating for their freedom to be, and donate for helping, here.
