Black trans people are just getting murdered left and right in the US, it’s so fucking scary. When it’s Black trans women, it’s “just another murder” to some of y’all. When it’s Black nonbinary people, y’all will usually misgender them before going, again “it’s just another murder”. When it’s Black trans men, you think it’s an anomaly for a second and then go “it’s just another murder.”

Black trans people crowd-fund on here and get such absurd amounts of hate, just for asking for help and can’t get anything in comparison to a lot of white people who crowdfund on here. It’s almost like y’all don’t care about Black trans people at all. Which is almost more horrifying than the amount of us dying in mass from these murders. We’re fucking people. 

You could fund all our crowdfunds and yeah, that’s great, do that, but it’s not gonna replace us if we’re murdered. Black trans people in the US are some of the most likely to be hate crimed and it’s not just police brutality, it’s the fact we don’t have the same support, we’re fighting anti-Blackness on top of transphobia, we’re fighting some of you. It’s just. Some of y’all won’t even pretend to give a fuck about us once we’re dead. That’s unfathomably disgusting to me. There is no justice for dead people but y’all keep pretending you can dish it out by reblogging a post or two.

Support the funeral crowdfunds, sure, but that doesn’t mean jackshit if you don’t support us while we’re alive too. Why can’t you just support us while we’re alive.
