I’m a black trans man who is openly disabled and queer and as much as I am ok with my identity I still have to remember I’m at risk of being hate crimed and targeted just for being myself.
it’s scary existing both in online spaces and irl spaces due to bigotry from every corner. I’m just happy to exist despite being traumatized for being heavily marginalized and glad to have others be my friend.
i just ask one thing. which is, if bigoted harassment happens to me, please my friends, please be there for me. boost and protect black trans people.
it’s extremely dangerous on the internet as a minority to be open and honest and even celebrate your identity but I do it proudly cuz I have no shame in myself as much. I just want my friends to be there for me, because there are those who want to harm me. but I try to be brave
