Repost from @munroebergdorf - “Needed to take a minute and gather myself before speaking about this story at length. Firstly I'm heartbroken, for Faith, Reese and their loved ones. I'm heartbroken for the black community, the trans community and ultimately humanity.

Almost consistently since this year began, stories of black transgender women being attacked and murdered by cisgender men have been reported with such little urgency or concern for the fact that this situation is critical. Imagine if it were cisgender white women being hunted down and shot to death in parking lots, fished out of lakes, or found stabbed in hotel rooms, purely for the fact that they were cisgender and white. IMAGINE THE UPROAR, the public outcry. But a white woman's life will always be held with greater esteem in a society where whiteness reigns supreme.

Black transgender lives are held with such little regard by wider society that our deaths are expected, our deaths are a statistic, our deaths seemingly do not matter. And that weighs so heavily on me and my sisters every single day. Now, Reese, a black cisgender male has taken his own life after being bullied by other black cisgender men for coming out as in a relationship with Faith, a black transgender woman on social media... But before you state your disgust at those men who pushed Reese to take his own life. Ask yourself, what would YOU feel if you found out your father, your brother, your ex, your lover or your son brought home a black transgender woman. Are you still down for black trans lives then when we're stitting opposite you at the dining room table next him?

Every single day just seems to get darker and darker and every single time it gets worse for trans folk and queer folk in general, it falls on the shoulders of black trans women, the most the most marginalized members of the LGBT community to not only lift ourselves up, but also to educate others as to why our lives matter. Honestly, I'm tired of it. It feels like a large portion of the queer community got their rights and jumped ship and the rest of us are clambering for the life rafts. RIP Reese. Thinking of you Faith.”

carykylene Thank you; a million times, in a million ways you use your platform to draw attention to crucial social issues. I haven’t followed you for long, but every post of yours I see, I’m grateful for the ways that you care, and the efforts you take to share with your followers. You’re my favorite famous, rich white guy :)

dru_the_duff It’s a real shame so many people have to be so horrible. Love is love and if you don’t like someone else’s love, too bad. It’s none of your business. Faith and Reese were robbed of their life and love together because stupid humans had to spread hate.

marooshaaa Well if i was confident enough about my life choices, i would pay zero attention to whatever is said or perceived..bulleying gets to the unconfident.. insecure and weak. I dont care about what is said and done as long as am happy about.my choice

ms.kerri_cecil thank you @mattmcgorry for sharing this with your fan base!! We need people willing to shed light on the hate the trans community and those that love us face.

anjp_ Please shine a light on the real story, Reese was both physically and emotionally abusive. This story is not about cis men.

queeng_fashionaddict That’s deep, this world beautiful and fucked up 💔I respect the trans y’all fire🔥keep shining✨
