Black Trans Futures

Our black trans futures are at stake

we do not only want to mirror the world as we live in but reflect the futures we want.

 

What do you want for the future of black trans people?

 

Our folks have been pushed out, locked up, erased, isolated, violated, and killed

strategizing our futures is part of our work.
