ID: text that reads “I’ve been in headlines across the United States and across the world, I’ve been named personally in anti-trans legislation. I’ve been honored by top LGBTQ organizations, I’ve been painted as a hero, as a villain, as a symbol, as a representative for an issue that has taken center stage in the culture wars. But when people are busy turning you into a symbol, they forget what you really are: a human being. A person with needs and desires, fears and hopes just like everyone else. At the end of the day, I’m just a girl with a dream. A girl with so much love in her heart. And all I want, all I’ve ever wanted, is the freedom to run.”
