Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
Being trans and black in public is exhausting
Everything involves research. If im going anywhere, I need to look at the poc population, the general queer friendliness, the safety of the area, any history of black queer violence.
I can't exist outside of my friends and family.
To black people, im a weird and ugly little girl. I'm trying to hard to be white. "You're black before you're gay"
To white queer people, im not relatable. I'm not one of them. "Queer people are oppressed too. Stop using the race card"
Fuck all of you. Fuck the respectability politics supporters, fuck the white queers who co-op our creations and our culture, fuck the white queers who don't make space for poc culture in queer spaces, fuck the Christian poc who care more about a book than the happiness of their own community.
Fuck anyone who thinks I can't be me.
