How two Black transgender women are fighting housing insecurity for the LGBTQ+ community:

revealed that 41% of Black transgender respondents reported experiencing homelessness at some point in their lives, a rate five times higher than that of the general U.S. population.

"I'm a person who has tried to access shelters during my time of homelessness or helplessness and they have not been safe places for me," she added."Here in Memphis, there are no shelters that are specifically for Black trans women, other than My Sistah's House." "Being able to provide [homes] for a community of folks who've never had houses is a phenomenal way to start a transition out of homelessness," said Gore, who has already notified three people that they'll be receiving the homes.

"I can create within my own realm, I can be governed by my choices and my dream which is to take care of people," said Doroshow when describing why she created the organization."I want to make sure people can grow, and they can be educated, and they can get all the love and power."Ceyenne Doroshow is the founder and executive director of Gays and Lesbians Living in a Transgender Society , the first Black trans-owned housing community in New York City.

Question is, if they just never stated openly that they are trans, who would care. They are just pushing their immoral lifestyle by doing this.

There isn’t housing security for normal regular people

They share stupid because it’s not about them being transgender it’s about being black. White lgbt never have housing problems

The Racist white men(i.e. board members and Chairmen) who own and operate need to be identified and called out for their Anti-Black propaganda campaign against the African American community! The race war against blacks is in full effect and lead by the media platform

I don’t understand why people can’t just live their lives! How do transgender people living next door to me, affect me? I had a gay couple across the street in the 70’s, and they were the best neighbors! All I can say is, get over your fears...it’s not contagious!

Positive action ✅

lol please stop with this comedy

Im sure the fact that they are BLACK had little to do with the discrimination. The LGBT agenda coattails BLK suffering to advance its interests. This is clear propaganda. Notice there are no bills being voted on to Protect BLK ppl even after months of protests.
