Black Trans Women have an issue with Black Girls Rock awards show

[The Lonious Monk]

The problem I see with a lot of these movements is that they don't have any central leadership that's actually responsible for thinking things through and making sure they are presenting a united front in a reasonable manner. Right now, you see a lot of passion, which is dope because it means that people are willing to take a stand for what they believe. However, passion without thought is problematic. That's how you get a bunch of people who shouldn't be saying anything making dumbass comments that really just lead to division and backlash.

In a nation of over 300 million, that has thousands of murders a year. 18 of those happened to be black & trans, and they consider it an epidemic, thats wild. But to get back on the thread topic, they see her folding and unless the next show is just all black trans women, they still wont be happy with anything she says or does.

Two transgender women have been killed and a third stabbed in the past seven months in Dallas

Yeah this white dude MacArthur here in Toronto caught like 8 gay niggas. Probably more they just didn't find the bodies. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4996229

That’s just to demonize the black community specifically black men. A lot of those trans people that get killed are usually killed by white dudes and these trans people are in the sex work business. Black men not running around randomly killing trans people just because.

Did I miss something? I hadn't actually seen them tying trans deaths to black men. I wouldn't be surprised by that though.

It’s the same as the black on black crime argument. One incident involving a black man and a trans and they tie it into a black men harms trans and gay people argument.

They do.......and that's the problem.


*edit*


That went over my head at first, but I get what you're saying now.

Yeah, it's really uncharacteristic for black men in the U.S. to be hunting down trans people.


That's definitely some white people shit.

They won't come out and say it directly, but the implication is quite clear.


It's all part of the "toxic masculinity" narrative they're trying to push.


And we all know who the focus of toxic masculinity is.
