Every Black and brown life matters - always have and always will.
The best use of my platform is to share Black and brown resources that support action and education:
G.L.T.S – Gays & Lesbians Living In A Transgender Society – approaches the crises faced by transgender sex workers through holistic means through economic justice and community empowerment.
The Okra Project – a grassroots collective working to extend free nutritious meals to Black Trans people experiencing food insecurity worldwide.
Barnor Hesse, Associate Professor of African American Studies, Political Science and Sociology at Northwestern University, created “The 8 White Identities.” We all need to work to become White Abolitionists. Identify where you are and get to work. This is also a helpful guide to identify how those around you truly stand.
