I’m thrilled to celebrate TransLash Media’s 2 #GLAADAwards nominations! Nominated for “Outstanding Independent Journalism” and for “Outstanding TV Journalism - Long Form” with #AmericanProblemsTransSolutions reminds us all how vital this work is. Thank you GLAAD, the entire TransLash team, our partners PBS and The WNET Group, and the incredible documentary stars: Kayla Gore, Breonna McCree, and Oluchi Omeoga.

To those who have upheld culture and built possibilities where none were offered. To those who have fought, created, and demanded a future where Black trans lives not only exist but thrive. To those who have taken matters into their own hands, ensuring Black trans people can live with dignity, joy, and power—we honor you. We are here because of you. Happy Black History Month.

Imara Jones breaks it all down in the latest episode of The Mess. Subscribe now to listen: https://lnkd.in/gmK5ZiU7
