Transgender and gender-diverse identities are not modern inventions; they have deep roots in global history:
Safety: Transgender women of color experience disproportionately high rates of violence.
Trans people don’t owe us androgyny or surgery to be valid. They owe us nothing—but our culture owes them everything. 🏳️⚧️🤝🏳️🌈
Yet, amidst challenges, hope abounds, In the resilience of a community found, In the love that binds, in the support that heals, A testament to the power of being real.
Cisgender: People whose gender identity aligns with the sex they were assigned at birth—the "opposite" of transgender.
In this world, we can be ourselves, without fear, Embracing our differences, holding love dear, For in the end, it's love that makes us whole, Unapologetically ourselves, our hearts made of gold.
