Nevo is a positive and confident young person with the same hopes and dreams as many young people. He tells a powerful story about growing up with the knowledge that the sex assigned to him at birth did not match who he knew he truly was.

2020 Edit: It's been a fair few years since we created this video! Since then, Nevo's gone on to write an acclaimed book, and has embarked on a truly impressive creative career. Find out more: www.nevozisin.com

'All of Us' is a ground-breaking educational resource created by Minus18 and Safe Schools Coalition Australia which will allow teachers in classrooms across Australia to discuss and support gender diversity and sexual diversity. The program has been developed to have a real impact on student attitudes towards lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people and to encourage whole school change that affirms and supports the right of all students, staff and families feel safe while at school.

Creative Director and Filmmaker - Margot Fink
Executive Producer - Chris Bush

    Watched this a year ago, rewatching because I just read their book. THANK YOU.

    Haha, I can totally understand coming out over Facebook. That's what I did for my sexual orientation. I came out to one person face to face, then I went back home and wrote in on Facebook because I thought that would be way too hard to do 100 times. I'm still questioning my gender identity, but I guess I'll have to experiment some more with my body image to know what makes me feel more comfortable.

    This is a powerful story eloquently told. Well done, Nevo. Well done, Margot Fink and Chris Bush, too
  • Wow, I really felt so comfortable listening to you Nevo. You helped me to understand so much about a brave new generation of people with enormous clarity and courage. I'm in my late 60s and am reflecting on how much social pressure and conditioning must have held back and locked in so many of my generation to lead lives of fear, denial and misery. Thank you for your relaxed warmth, strong spirit and willingness to share your story for others to ease more readily into their own skins. Hopefully your generation can lead us quickly into a whole new world of freedom, love, acceptance and celebration of difference, not only about gender but also about race, religion and all the quirky little differences that define who we are as individuals!

    The trans road is not an easy one. It does you more harm than good. Stay with the physical reality of biological sex because it is safer than an imagined gender identity.
