To all my beloved Bay Area community, I want to share that we'll be gathering on June 15th to honor the life of my dear friend and sister, Michelle. She was a vibrant light in our community, taken from us far too soon.

Michelle Henry should be here. But the truth is, Black trans women like her, like us, are targets for simply existing. This isn't just transphobia or racism, it's necropolitics - the system's power to decide who lives and who dies, and how.

“Unsurprisingly, so many Black journalists are pivoting to different careers. We feel underpaid, devalued, and taken for granted. But, without Black writers, we lose out on important Black stories.” such a lovely piece by ⁦Habibakatsha⁩ refinery29.com/en-gb/black-wo…
