Trans & Nonbinary Kids Mix
Donation protected
All youth need music that reflects who they are, and trans/nonbinary youth especially need our support during this challenging time of increased isolation.
We put out a call for songs that:
-reflect the trans/nonbinary experience
-use gender neutral pronouns
-sound like an ally anthem
-use humor to talk about gender
-smash the concept of the gender binary
-talk about intersecting identities
-speak to kids in elementary or middle school
....and so many musicians sent us songs!
As we have not been awarded any grants (yet), it became clear that youth need this music NOW. We want this music to support and connect trans/nonbinary youth as they are home alone, without camps, without being able to visit their trans/nonbinary friends. We thought we could do the project unfunded, but now we realize we need to dream bigger. We need to create a world where musicians and artists get paid every time. Help us raise funds to pay the musicians a stipend and to hire a trans/nonbinary artist to create cover art.
When the mix is released, it will be free, with all donations benefitting Camp Aranu'tiq (www.camparanutiq.org) , summer camp for trans/nonbinary youth!
