Yo, Trans folk, little wisdom from my Black family…

You ain’t gone win, babe. Don’t try to win cause the game is rigged and ain’t no way you gone win. Your job ain’t ta win, your job is to make the work a bit better for those who come after. And you ain’t gone do that crawlin into no hole.

Be out, be seen, be seen happy, and make it home alive. You ain’t gotta start no fight, you ain’t gotta win the war.

You gotta let that little kid see you, so they know their fire is worth burning for.

Always forward babe. Never back.
