  • What would my life and the world look like if Black Trans* Lives mattered? Race, gender, social class, and disability all intersect to shape Black Trans* lives. How would social institutions, such as education, law, healthcare, religion, and family be different? Dr. Dafina-Lazarus (D-L) Stewart (he and they) is professor in the School of Education and Co-Coordinator of Student Affairs in Higher Education and affiliated faculty in the Center for Women’s Studies and Gender Research at Colorado State University. Over the course of his 18-year faculty career, he has focused most intently on the history and philosophy of higher education, as well as institutional systems and structures that affect the postsecondary experiences, growth and development, as well as success of racially minoritized and queer and trans* students. D-L examines these topics through intersectional, critical, and poststructural frameworks that incorporate ableism, religious hegemony, and classism alongside racism, patriarchy, as well as anti-queer/trans antagonism. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Why must Trans people announce they are trans or make it a point soon as you meet them. I really want to understand this because it makes me feel a certain way then when it is pushed on me... for lack of better explanation. I feel like I have to treat you differently or applaud you almost as if you r looking for approval or justification. That is what bothers me... if we get along... it's because we have a connection. If we dont, it ok... we go separate ways. But since I know your trans, you made it such a point to tell me, I feel pressured that if I dont like you as a person, you can say I don't like you cause of your gender identity... and that's ridiculous.

      @@SuperJoobers coming off as if you like someone on a friendship level or basic human level isn't the worst thing to have someone construe your respect as. Not wanting someone to misconstrue respect as romantic pursuit is understandable. I think it could be helpful to consider, as to what the original poster alluded to, the way people often treat trans individuals is binary; many people get pushed to the sidelines and discarded because they're trans; alternatively, people won't interact with them out of fear, even fear that they'll come off as discriminatory when that isn't the intention. Or there are other people who are wholeheartedly supportive and accepting. But it's very either/or for many. Many people either have someone wanting to be their friend and accepting them or wanting nothing to do with them because they're trans, and this stems from the reality that getting basic acceptance and treatment like anyone else isn't the standard yet. It's okay to respect someone and their identity as a human without necessarily getting along with that person, the same way you might respect someone from a different culture and their experience without necessarily getting on with the individual. When someone has a lot of discrimination thrown their way, though, it's most common they'll wonder whether that's the reason or not. A good cure to this is being informed, respectful, and communicating. Especially communicating with different people about their experiences because, inevitably, there is going to be some individual you like more than another. This shows that you are an ally and that your actions are not motivated by transphobia. Fearing someone wants a friendship with you shouldn't keep you from respecting their identity; that fear is what perpetuates situations like what everyone here mentioned. Ultimately, it comes down to the fact that trans people consistently get treated differently, and that changes one person at a time. Remember, on an individual basis, personal boundaries are always something that you can set, just like with any person
