‘Make Space For Trans Students,’ UIC Demands In Letter to School Community

One of the Left’s most sacred “holidays” is quickly approaching, and the University of Illinois at Chicago is determined to ensure coerced compliance with its “celebration” efforts.

In a message sent to UIC students, faculty, and staff, the “Chancellor’s Committee for the Status of LGBTQ People” (CCSLGBTQP) noted that it will host a lineup of events for “Trans Day of Visibility” on March 31 (a date that most normal people celebrate as Easter) and emphasized the supposed importance of “the work that is still needed” to affirm the delusions of so-called “transgender” individuals.

“CCSLGBTQP stresses the importance of using a trans person’s correct gender identity, name, and pronouns,” the email reads. “This is a required minimum way to respect trans people and work toward creating an environment that values inclusion.” Students are instructed to “disrupt communication and speak up” when “incorrect” pronouns are used.

UIC’s administration never shies away from opportunities to demonstrate its adherence to leftistm. Last year, the school’s Young Americans for Freedom chapter participated in YAF’s “No More Che Day” activism project, celebrating the death of the Marxist revolutionary who led vicious campaigns to impose Communism throughout Latin America. A UIC administrator quickly shut down the chapter’s tabling display and threatened them with disciplinary action. Just a few weeks ago, Chancellor Marie Lynn Miranda invited Dr. Anthony Fauci, the leftist bureaucrat whose inept handling of the COVID-19 pandemic inflicted immense suffering and hardship on the American people, to speak on campus. She called him her “personal hero” during their hour-long fireside chat.

In order to combat the lies and manipulation that will be pushed on “Trans Day of Visibility,” the UIC YAF chapter plans to participate in Young America’s Foundation’s latest national activism project, “De-Transitioners’ Day of Visibility.” 

On April 2, YAFers throughout the country will highlight the bold voices of those who have gone through the unimaginably painful “transition” process, only to be left with regret and permanent bodily and emotional damage.

“The trans movement in and of itself has fostered more hate and division than love and compassion,” Jerwyn Castillo, UIC YAF chairman, told the New Guard

“Our activism project will demonstrate using first-hand testimony that the Left’s agenda is unthinkably evil.”
