High school senior Megan Bickford, 17, leaves The Mane Room after having her hair styled for her prom, in Norway, Maine, U.S., May 15, 2021. A store advertising "Guns and Ammo" is next to the hair salon. As a young gay woman, Bickford said she watched in horror as the Trump administration tried to ban transgender people from serving in the military and rescinded protections for transgender public school students. At 16, she cut ties with a close friend who became a vocal supporter of Trump. REUTERS/Brian Snyder SEARCH "CLASS OF 2021" FOR THIS STORY. SEARCH "WIDER IMAGE" FOR ALL STORIES
