What A Difference A Year Makes

Back in May 2008 I wrote a TransGriot post entitled 'Destruction of the Black Transwoman Image.'

In that post I pointed out that transwomen have some of the same problems as our cisgender sisters when it comes to Black womanhood. I also lamented in that post the lack of positive trans role models of African descent.

Just three months after I wrote that, things started to change.
