Last night I attended an event that was hosted by Tranny Fest.
First of all I want to thank the people who create film festivals.
The panel I attended last night was fabulous I learned a lot.
It helps me to regain my focus.
I am a transsexual and a filmmaker and a television show producer.
I went to the panel to figure out where the community of transgenders and transsexuals are hurting.
It seems the togetherness thing is a big problem in our community.
Lots of trannies doing stuff but not including the whole community.
I am from the southern US and yes I do have to deal with my racism. And I have. Just watch my show.
However, it seems that other people like to bring up other person's racism but they never deal with their own.
I only counted maybe a handful of African American's in the audience and on the panel.
Inlcuding Miss Major who is one of our demigods. Miss Major is the core of our community and I wish...
Well let me get back to what my point is.
The African American's that were (Miss Major excluded) there only seemed to be superficially reaching out.
Doesn't that reinforce our own prejudices?
If a person is in California and is racist, well the racism will change because there are the most unique and gifted people(all colors, race and ages) here in this state, that should have the rest of our country weeping with worry. The quality of the people will stamp out the bigotry, racism and prejudices.
My point: I pushed aside my racism and prejudices for the sake of my community.
So should everyone else.
Conclusion: You uneducated, brainwashed and ignorant AMERICANS out there bashing and abusing Transsexuals or transgenders WE ARE COMING FOR YOU> BEWARE
