As a Queer Person, I’m Doing THIS in the Aftermath of the U.S. Election
I Just Became a Teacher for Queer Kids. Right on Time?
Being transgender, I don’t respond well to schoolyard bullies
The new privilege awarded to me by this election is that I live in a Blue city, one that will have a new group of refugees to receive, the gender refugees.
The election is too new to know how desperate it will be for members of the LGBTQ community in Red areas, but I have read that people are already moving or trying to move from these gender-repressed areas.
Sadly, I think it will only get worse.
Time will tell me how bad it will get. Part of me is hoping it was only political rhetoric, like making Mexico pay for building the border wall, promised and never delivered when Trump was last elected.
I refuse to lose hope.
Kamala received 69,074,145 votes. Trump got only 4 million more. There are a lot of Americans who support my vision of democracy. So the world won’t end with his election.
So don’t be afraid of the bullies.
I don’t have any answers yet, but I know I can’t be passive either. I have gotten certified as a substitute…
