I went to one of the protests that have been happening all over the UK due to the recent bullshit and so many of the speakers either just,, barely mentioned non-binary people as effected by the bill (other than a brief 'trans and non-binary people') or didn't even seem to register it effected anyone but trans women. I'm really glad that the protests happened, and that trans women rightfully got support, discussion and focus, but I wish non-binary people's utter erasure was talked about :( I might see if I can speak about it in the next protest, I know there are plans for more, and a lot are open to speeches from the crowd.
If you can, try to contact the organisers of these protests with information about how these rulings affect (and have effected) nonbinary people in the past and how it is just as detrimental to the nonbinary community as well as trans women (and trans men for that matter. This court ruling has misgendered them as women). You could try email, SMS, or even on a public platform like Twitter. I personally have been emailing. Speaking out creates change.
If you can't, then try your hardest to spread awareness: educate people in your local community, submit posts on this and other blogs, contact trans/queer charities and news outlets with the information about nonbinary erasure and exorsexism and explain that they must run stories and articles about us and our struggle too, they must make nonbinary specific resource lists and spaces because we are legally forced into non existence, and that should not happen in spaces for queer safety. There are many ways to get the word out there, even if it's not in the larger protests. We can do this, stronger as a community.
