!!!!

This is unacceptable! We need to be donating to community spaces and places for Black trans women. We need to be building capacity, signal boosting, or whatever what we can do. We need to do better by them because our community deserves better. They deserve better.

Two trans women were killed this week, and the death of a trans man a month ago is still under investigation.

Love to see The Okra Project doing such amazing work! If you’d like to support this and other initiatives (AND get some fantastic artwork alongside it!)— look at this month’s collection on our website!

The two funds aim to provide therapy sessions for Black transgender individuals free of charge.

Hey there, Fellow Qu**rs - Em (Emily M. Getsay) here! If you don't already know me, I'm a Non-binary/Enby, Pansexual, Q***r Conceptual Artist, and one of the Founders of ACTA. I came out as Pan about five years ago and came out as Nonbinary 2 years. It was a hell of a ride for sure. And the best thing I learned from it was that there isn't a right or wrong way to being Nonbinary. Slide through for a little taste of my journey and my gender expression depicted through the characters I identified with growing up as curious Q***r and how they've transformed over the years.
