One of the issues we discussed was networking. We both lamented the fact that white transpeople do a far better job of networking (at least from where we sit) and pulling each other up than we do in the African descended trans community.
We are in the second month of a new decade, and if we are going to exit the end of the 2K10s in better shape as a community than we entered it, some fundamental things about the way we do business in the African-American trans community must immediately change.
