I'm enjoying mastodon so far but wow, all the comments about how white it is are extremely right. Almost all the other trans folks I've found have been white, and I know that isn't representative of the real world or even likely mastodon as a whole. I'd love to hear more from trans and queer POC (and POC all up, I've just been connecting with a LOT of trans folks).

Can anyone boost this to help me find more voices to listen to? Or recommend some hashtags? I don't even know how best to tag this.

@inherentlee hey, Lee! We do a #transappreciationfriday thread every week where anyone who’s trans/non-binary is encouraged to join in.

I know I really try to use visibility to connect ALL people in our community, especially BIPOC, to find one another, connect and interact. Also, if you have more tips or suggestions as to how I can be more inclusive, please let me know. I’m open to learn. 💜

@AlyAlyOutnFree yup, I replied to that yesterday. I'll let you know if I have or hear suggestions, but I'm white so I'm still very much learning too.
