‘A little odd’: Biden administration marks Easter as ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’
Sky News host Chris Kenny discusses the Biden administration’s “odd” decision to use Easter as a day to recognise Transgender Day of Visibility. On Good Friday, President Joe Biden proclaimed March 31, 2024, as ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’ and called upon “all Americans to join” in “lifting up the lives and voices of transgender people”. Foreign Minister Penny Wong also took to social media to say the Albanese Labor government stands with transgender and gender-diverse people. Mr Kenny said the Foreign Minister also made a post about Easter, expressing hope for everyone to stay safe over the long weekend, while during Ramadan she referred to it as the holy month. “The woke can refer to Ramadan as a holy month, as they should, that is its significance, but Easter? That's just a long weekend apparently,” he said. “And Transgender Visibility Day too. How about respect for all? How about we have a little more visibility for Christianity at Easter too.”
