Listen, as a trans women, hiding online instead of walking the streets is exactly what they want.
When you fear the outside world, when you fear being out in public, and making connections with people, you've allowed them to win.
The future you foster for your grandbabies will not change.
Unless you make it change that is.
We have to foster a better community than the one we have now. We have to make a change or our kids won't feel safe. I don't want them to grow up scared to be themselves.
I didn't mean for that last part to sound so rude, and I am sorry for that.
I spent over a decade trying, I was chairman for my county, worked for the dem party as a volunteer, helped get election workers, I've made casseroles and taken candidates to meet and greets at restaurants. Helped register voters and now I am leaving Texas. They won't change, let'em rot.
That's not building community though, that's trying to gain supporters for a political cause.
I'm talking about building community gardens, hosting card game events and movie nights, having art events, and supporting eachother outside of political alignment. A community of people, not voters.
