"We can do it together, but we can't do it until we embrace and love each other through our differences, because of our differences," theOn Thursday's episode, guest hosted by Billy Eichner, Porter brought attention to the homophobic and transphobic parts of the Black community.
Porter said that Black cisgender men killing Black trans women is at an all-time high, citing homophobia and transphobia for these crimes. He continued the interview saying he had worked his whole life to gain enough of a platform to "be in a position where I could speak from authority" on issues concerning the LGBTQ community. may seem bleak, Porter highlighted how the perceptions towards LGBTQ members of the Black community have shifted.
"My experience in the '80s was my cousin saying that if I ever turned gay, he would kill me," the actor shared. "So yeah, sometimes my trauma shows." Eichner thanked Porter for using his platform to speak about issues concerning the LGBTQ community, including members who are not only queer but also those who are Black and people of color. Porter responded that equality requires love and acceptance.
Amazing how he can talk about, this so called homophobia in the black community. Yet never talking able the same white supremacy, in the gay community? What he also doesn't tell U is, these transexuals. Passing themselves off as women 2 hetrosexual men. W/O revealing themselves.
I think it's disgusting how someone being gay or trans can bother someone to the point of physical violence.
Amen
Big Freedia got you beat ✨👏🏻
Boooooorriiiinng
Trans-Species people too ?
Everybody in, nobody out. The common denominator is we are all of the human race. Accept me, I accept you.
I'm glad he chose this moment to highlight a truth. We can't advocate for one demographic and not the other when speaking about the significance of lives.
