- Excuse me… am I a Harvard girl now??? I am deeply honored to be the recipient of the W.E.B Du Bois Freedom Medal Award at the historic Sanders Theater. Never would I have imagined being among these seven incredible humans receiving this award. Special congratulations to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Agnes Gund, Raymond J. McGuire, Deval Patrick, and Betye Saar. And what’s a Laverne Cox speech without a quote from the scholar that led me on my critical thinking journey?! The one and only bell hooks. Words cannot describe how moved and thankful I am for this honor.

These are truly troubled times in United States. Why is there so much hatred there? I admire your courage doing this in front of everyone. I’m proud to be a transwoman especially because you’re there and proving to everyone that we are normal and beautiful people.
Oh my goodness, got me in tears too
Amazing work! Congratulations, Laverne!

Go girl
She's a very interesting transwoman and a good actor. However, I disagree with her advocacy for the use of puberty blockers on children who present as biogender nonconforming. I was an effeminate boy and would have been very susceptible to this gender ideological stereotyping of being gender nonconforming, where anyone, including a child, should consider whether they have gender dysphoria. After going through a normal puberty, however, I'm an effeminate man who is gay. What a horror it would have been had I been put on puberty blockers (with the various negative side effects) and then subsequently transitioned into a transwoman after numerous intensive surgeries, who would need to take hormonal drugs for the rest of my life. Gender-affirming care sounds alluring, but in truth, there is no standard way to for any doctor to diagnose if a child truly has gender dysphoria or if they are just gay. And most often no one will know, including the child, until that child has gone through a normal puberty.
