About

SPECIAL EVENT: Leelah's Law: Ponies For Trans Youth

Ever wanted to pick the brains of the founders of BronyCon or BABSCon-- really ask them anything, candidly, and get an answer? (Maybe even some gossip from the REALLY early days of the fandom?)

Ever wanted to talk to some of the most well-known artists and fan VAs in the fandom, including a syndicated, published comics creator?

Our dozens of lucky listeners were able to do just that-- for charity!

For those following the news, 2014 ended on a sad note for the LGBT community, with the widely publicized suicide of transgender teenager Leelah Alcorn. Our fandom has more than its statistical share of trans* folk, making this hit close to home for plenty of pony people

On Jan 1, 2015, for 5 hours starting at 3PM Eastern/noon Pacific, we were delighted to present BronyCon founder Purple Tinker, BABSCon founder SonyaLynn, artist & fan VA Jitterbug Jive, and beloved comics artist (& official EFNW artist) Dana Simpson. As an added bonus, multi-convention veteran & Southern Skies con chair Obsidian Winter joined us late in the call after Sonya had to head out.

This amazing event raised an amazing $1,350 for the Transgender Human Rights Institute.
