Regina Livingston, also known as Natalia Dupree, the founder of Unspoken Treasure Society, leads the crowd in cheers of “Black lives matter” and “Trans lives matter.” She is a born-and-raised Gainesville resident, and was inspired to start the Unspoken Treasure Society because when she attempted to get help for herself, she couldn’t find it. "So at that moment, I needed to be the help," she said. "I needed to be the change that I wanted to see.” The mission of Unspoken Treasure Society “is to rally and provide resources on job placement and equality, affordable and fair housing, safe sex education and HIV awareness through counseling, suicide prevention, and advocating for victims of domestic abuse in efforts to help stop the violence against transgender men and women."
