Hike4Rights – Mason Dunn
At the core of his talk, Mason focused on his planned “Hike4Rights” that will happen in August before the ballot, supporting the yes vote. Dunn, along with Ev Evnen, director at the MaeBright group, and Ev’s dog Maxwell, will travel from the Massachusetts-Connecticut border to Mt. Greylock, the highest peak in Massachusetts, and finish at the Massachusetts-Vermont border. To further explain the 95-mile trek, Dunn stated, “We are hiking for our rights as transgender people for access to public accommodations. The TEDx platform gave me the opportunity to talk to people here in Massachusetts, but also viewers across the world.”
After reflecting on the TEDx event, and about his plans for Transgender activism going forward, Mason stated,“It is critical to share the information about transgender identities and rights, in order to debunk the misconceptions people have about the transgender community.”
