Demitri lucifer Rodriguez
Nominee Profile
Location: Stratford-upon-Avon
Nominee Bio: Demitri Rodriguez (Inkedupdemitri)
I am Demitri Rodriguez, widely known as Inkedupdemitri—a transgender advocate, conversion therapy survivor, and social media influencer committed to fighting for LGBTQ+ rights, trans visibility, and mental health awareness. Born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, I have used my personal experiences to drive meaningful change, becoming a leading voice in the fight against conversion therapy and transphobia.
I made history as the first openly trans conversion therapy survivor to campaign globally without anonymity, breaking the silence on a harmful practice that has devastated countless LGBTQ+ lives. By sharing my survival story, I have sparked national and international conversations, urging governments and organizations to take action against conversion therapy. My advocacy work with Stonewall has amplified the call for change, ensuring that survivor voices are heard and that trans youth are protected.
Beyond activism, I have built a significant platform on TikTok and Instagram, where I educate, inspire, and empower my audience through candid discussions on gender identity, transitioning, and mental health. My openness has helped break down stigma and provide visibility for trans people worldwide.
My impact extends to mainstream media, where I have shared my journey on major platforms, including the BBC’s “Go Hard or Go Home”. My participation in the show showcased my resilience, determination, and strength, proving that trans individuals can thrive despite the challenges we face.
My relentless commitment to equality, education, and empowerment has already changed lives—but my work is far from over. As a trailblazer, activist, and survivor, I will continue to use my voice to advocate for a world where all LGBTQ+ individuals can live freely, safely, and authentically.
Recognizing my work means recognizing the urgent need for change and honoring the power of resilience, visibility, and advocacy in the fight for equality.
