Black Trans Women Want People To Say Their Names — While They’re Alive

"Everybody takes to the streets, and they rally, they protest. But where was that same energy when that lady was alive?"

Black trans sex workers’ rights activists say they are fighting for their lives.

In the midst of a generational reckoning over systemic racism that has coincided with a pandemic and Pride Month, the killings of two Black trans women — Dominique “Rem’mie” Fells and Riah Milton — within just 24 hours and the brutal beating of another have fueled protests and demands for action on the specific ways that racism and police violence affect the LGBTQ community.

Black trans people are more likely than their white counterparts to face employment discrimination and housing insecurity, and criminalization for their gender presentation under statues that permit police to profile people they think may be engaging in sex work. A staggering number of Black trans people — nearly half, according to a 2011 study from the National Center for Transgender Equality and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force — have also been incarcerated.

Those who sell sex face even greater criminalization and the possibility of violence at both the hands of the police and their clients.

With historic protests for Black Trans Lives in Brooklyn and around the country on Sunday and a 6–3 decision from the Supreme Court making employment discrimination against queer and trans people illegal, there is growing momentum for change. But even as recently as Friday, the Trump administration attempted to undo protections for healthcare for trans people, and advocates say that policy progress — like a bill to repeal what’s called the “walking while trans ban” that has moved slowly in the New York state legislature — is still falling short.

I’ve found myself wondering “Where are the trans people of color?” a million times.

In my life, I’m often the only person of color in a room of trans people. I’ve noticed it is harder to find pictures and reviews of products (like packers) in the non-white skin tones. I see fewer pictures of POC post-surgery, and fewer people of color documenting their changes on HRT. Selfies of trans people, binary or non-binary, tend to skew towards the white and AFAB side. Hopefully, this blog can provide a sense of community and inclusion for all trans people of color.

This blog is a place where we can answer that question. Where are the trans people of color? We’re right here! We’re talking about how our day went, about our families, about coming out, about our pets, about our transitions, about our ups and downs. We are here. We exist.

This is a new blog for TPOC (trans people of color) to submit selfies of themselves! Anyone and everyone is allowed to follow us, all support is welcome, but only TPOC can send selfies.

Please reblog and spread the word!

I’m not fucking around when I say that I’m manifesting my dream life.

I’m not stressing over anything anymore. I’m gonna stfu, do the work and let the universe take care of everything.
