Black trans, gender non-conforming, and intersex people are central to the fight for Black liberation. We can’t fight against anti-Blackness and white supremacy without fighting transphobia, homophobia, and the ways white supremacy upholds harmful gender policing and many forms of gender-based violence – including the epidemic of deadly violence against Black trans women and femmes.
When we build a world where Black trans, GNC, and intersex people are safe and thriving, we build a world where every Black life matters.
Join The Movement for Black Lives for a webinar on Ending the War on Black Trans, GNC, and Intersex People. This webinar is the first in a series of Black August conversations around the recently relaunched Vision for Black Lives 2020, updated to reflect current conditions and a deepened Black queer transfeminist and disability justice analysis. Let’s get into how we will more consistently and authentically work to end racialized, transphobia, and patriarchal violence as part of our movement for Black liberation!

The revamped Vision for Black Lives 2020 has been expanded and deepened to meet current political conditions through a disability justice, reproductive justice, and Black trans queer feminist lens. We have significantly expanded our demands to End the War on Black Trans, Gender Non-Conforming, and Intersex People in light of the ongoing epidemic of violence against Black trans women and the Trump administration’s intensified anti-trans policies.
Our movement must center the experiences, voices, and visions of Black people living at the intersections of ableist, gender-based, and homophobic and transphobic violence.
We will leave no Black people behind on the path to liberation.
In Power,
