Creating Black Characters *with intent! on Tumblr

Image ID: pdf of a word document that reads as follows:

“I’d like to see more half closeted stories; by that I mean being out and open with some family members but unable to do so for others and how that complicates transition.”

“If I want a transman in media it’d be cool to see another black or brown transman who’s not on T or had surgery… I do enjoy Sex Education which has a transmasc nonbinary black character who only starts T in the last season…”

“I want to see more black trans characters that don’t fit into stereotypical molds… Challenge the ideas you have in your head of your trans brothers sisters and siblings…”

“I just want to see more black trans ppl like… at all! But especially black trans ppl who don’t fall into other stereotypes that are uncomfortable. Game I like has a black trans woman which is Awesome but she’s super muscular and stuff despite being an academic. It always makes me raise an eyebrow. I want stories about us as people first and foremost.” End ID.
