ok. as long as we’re on the subject of apologies, i wonder if anybody is going to apologize to queen emily for deciding that she was helpless little baby trans girl who couldn’t possibly act on her own accord (through calling on friends, acting in alliance with, and actually approaching the clinic herself) to “save” herself.
or, that she couldn’t do something simpler, like tell her cis friend to shut the fuck up.
Because Emily couldn’t be *doing* anything, right? Except crying her poor little trans baby heart out on ‘well intentioned’ cis super savior’s shoulder.
Or maybe nobody decided that, they just… didn’t know her email to ask her? Or her blog address to ask her? Or maybe they forgot she existed?
what was that about…centering? centering…centering…i’m sure *somebody* mentioned that somewhere….
and then there’s that whole messy question of identity. Hm. Why is it that loud screaming person is deeply politicized trans woman of color, and little light is…..friend of well intentioned cis person?
I wonder what any of this has anything to do with the fact that loud screaming woman of color doing battle with another loud screaming woman of color is so much easier for white supremacist culture to understand than *other* interactions between other “kinds” of women of color.
hmmmmmmmmmmm.
