Unitarian Universalist Society East, 153 Vernon St. West, Manchester CT, presents a recorded lecture by award-winning transgender journalist, activist, and story-teller Imara Jones in honor of the 2026 Transgender Day of Visibility. In the lecture, which will be screened at 7 PM March 31 at the UUSE meetinghouse, Jones lays out how the Heritage Foundation and the architects of Project 2025 use anti-trans policies as a wedge to divide the country. While her analysis is chilling, her lecture is equally hopeful and uplifting. The event is sponsored by the UUSE Welcoming Congregation Recertification Team. Jones’ presentation was the Unitarian Universalist Association’s 2025 Ware Lecture. Jones has won Emmy and Peabody Awards and is the creator of TransLash Media, a cross-platform project seeking to shift the current culture of hostility towards transgender people in the US.
