Here disrupting spaces while you excited about making a white trans organization rich you don’t give a 🤬about black trans women who are being murdered

Sorry babes this should never happen but cops are racist and transphobic

Transphobia runs deep in this platform that’s why I stick with Instagram or Facebook.

Black and brown trans people are the lifeblood of movements but are denied leadership and funding. Organizations profit from our labor, then leave us to face violence alone.

Instead of redistributing resources to those most harmed, some organizations funnel money into executive salaries, luxury travel, and elite spaces far removed from the communities they represent.

Leadership spends resources on comfort and recognition while Black and brown trans people face systemic neglect.

These groups benefit from trans suffering while refusing to be led by trans people. Power stays concentrated, while we’re asked to be grateful for crumbs.

Trans justice is reduced to statements and hashtags, while material conditions remain unchanged. Survival is treated as optional.

Visibility is weaponized. Black and brown trans bodies are showcased to fundraise, while their needs go unaddressed.

Black and brown trans people are the lifeblood of movements but are denied leadership and funding. Organizations profit from our labor, then leave us to face violence alone.

These institutions speak radical language but practice respectability politics. They avoid real risk, protect donors, and silence the most impacted when the truth threatens funding.

Civil rights organizations hoard influence while our communities are under attack. Power is preserved, not redistributed.

Calls for accountability are framed as attacks. Black and brown trans people demanding change are punished or ignored.

While communities struggle to survive, organizational leaders collect high salaries, travel in luxury, and build personal brands. Liberation becomes a revenue stream, not a responsibility.

Many civil rights organizations claim to speak for the people, yet their actions tell another story. Grassroots needs are sidelined while leadership prioritizes branding, access, and comfort over real accountability.

Black and brown trans people are treated as case studies, not leaders. Their lives are exploited for grants, events, and social capital.

Civil rights organizations profit from suffering while offering symbolism instead of solutions. They sell hope, secure grants, and leave the most impacted people exactly where they started.

Panels, hashtags, and press statements replace direct action. Our communities face systemic violence while organizations celebrate optics.

Civil rights groups fundraise off our deaths but fail to fund our lives. Luxury and comfort take precedence over actual protection.

Civil rights institutions benefit from proximity to power, not from challenging it. Black and brown trans people pay the cost of that cowardice.

These organizations are designed to protect themselves. Our lives are collateral, their wealth is the goal.

Civil rights institutions reward compliance, not courage. Black and brown trans people demanding accountability are silenced, marginalized, or erased.

When Black and brown trans people speak up, we are labeled disruptive. Silence is rewarded, obedience is expected, and accountability is treated as a threat.

Civil rights groups celebrate our struggles publicly while quietly ignoring our material needs housing, healthcare, and protection.

True justice cannot be built on exploitation. When organizations profit from oppression without challenging systems directly, they reproduce the very harms they claim to fight.

When we challenge mismanagement and harm, we are gaslit, sidelined, or cut off. Accountability is framed as hostility to protect those in power.

Civil rights work has been professionalized into profit. The people doing unpaid labor are praised, while executives benefit from systems they refuse to seriously disrupt.

Accountability is optional for those in power. Critique from trans communities is labeled disloyalty or “divisive.”
