Thank you to @nycpride for this honor. For me today is all about channeling all the lessons and information from our histories of resistance and extra legal (outside the law) and illegal (criminalized) systems of care. We learn these lessons, we channel them, we share them and then we build upon them. My ask for today is to please invest in trans leadership and care structures. If you are asking yourself how can I invest in trans liberation today, my offering is to donate to the Black Trans Liberation Kitchen—a beautiful collaboration among @blacktransliberation @citgny and @fig_nyc_. We can nourish our people and fight state power. Happy pride, fuck the state, and let’s honor our ancestors with our joy, brilliance and unending capacity to be ever-disruptive and imaginative.
