summary_computer_generatedThe abstract summarizes an audio recording from a rally entitled "Remember Stonewall: Rally For Trans Healthcare," which took place in Wellington, New Zealand, on July 1, 2023. Organized by Queer Endurance/Defiance, the rally commemorated the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, which symbolizes a pivotal event in the fight for queer and trans rights. The gathering aimed to present 18 demands for improved transgender healthcare, reflecting deep-seated issues with current health services for the trans community. The organizers and attendees of the rally were driven by personal narratives and an urgency for change. They shared experiences of prolonged waits for treatment, gatekeeping by healthcare professionals, lack of informed consent, and insufficient funding for gender-affirming surgeries and therapies. Particularly, the community emphasized the significance of informed consent for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and puberty blockers without burdensome assessments, and increased funding and training for gender-affirming surgeries given the exceedingly long waiting lists. The attendees sought a healthcare system that respects trans identities without subjecting them to outdated research and skepticism. Moreover, the rally aimed to influence policies in the lead-up to a national election, with the anticipation that proactive, persistent public advocacy is crucial for realizing the desired healthcare reforms. The recording highlighted that such transformation is unlikely without a broad overhaul of the health system, indicating structural underfunding and a lack of resources that undermine healthcare across the board. Furthermore, through speeches and discussions, there was a collective call to recognize and resist international trends of anti-trans rhetoric, ensuring Aotearoa New Zealand does not regress on trans rights. Speakers included activists and healthcare workers who underscored the interconnected struggles of under-resourced health services, the presence of discriminatory attitudes within medical establishments, and the critical role of community in advocating for the rights and dignity of trans individuals.
