The 24 October was International Day of Action for the Depathologization of Trans, an initiative organised by the Stop Trans Pathologization campaign.  And <em>trans<\/em>, as a concept and as a reality is a notion that goes far beyond gender and has to do with flowing between identities, formats, policies and languages. For some time we have known that between black and white there is an infinite number of shades and colours. Trans means dialogue, confrontation, fluidity, tolerance.
