By: Deja Nicole Greenlaw*/TRT Columnist I am a white trans woman who enjoys living a comfortable middle class life.
I know trans people who are black, brown, etc. who also enjoy living a comfortable middle class life. I wonder, however, do they have the same advantages and the same level of enjoyment as I do?
I would guess that they don’t. Even though they may have income that matches or surpasses mine, I can see them being “othered” that is, being seen as different.
This is happening everywhere in America. I’ve heard that it’s a natural thing for people to want to be with others who like-minded.
