Love is love. Equality should be for everyone. Each person should be able to be their true self, however they want to define their gender, their sexual preferences, their pronouns. We have so much work to do to give justice to those who have been lost and to make a safe place for everyone. I will be checking out the site Sophia tagged for action steps. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍 #Repost @sophiabush • • • • • Let’s go LA. It’s #pride. And there would be no pride without Marsha P Johnson, a black trans woman who led the uprising at Stonewall, to demand an end to the police brutality suffered by the LGBTQA community. It was a revolution. It was the beginning of national awareness in the fight for equal rights for the queer community. “No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us,” Marsha famously said. And as we examine the landscape of our world today — as we are faced with the ugly truths about police brutality being a public health crisis — we must also scream from the rooftops that the murders of black trans women are a public health crisis too. The murders of trans folks are a public health crisis! Justice must be had for all, or it is not just. Today, and every day, let us say #AllBlackLivesMatter. And let us say their names. #NinaPop #TomyMcDade #LayleenPolanco #RiahMilton #DominiqueFells #MonikaDiamond • Visit ActForBlackTransLives.org for resources and action steps. 🎨 @ablmla https://www.instagram.com/p/CBcFBjMDqMT/?igshid=u90akz5qye9d
