J.K. Rowling is not a scientist. She is not a doctor. She is not an expert on gender. She is not a supporter of our community.

She is a billionaire, cisgender, heterosexual, white woman who has decided that she knows what is best for us and our bodies. This is not her fight.

If you want to know what is best for trans people. Listen to trans people.

More specifically, listen to black trans women who are navigating covid19, racism & transphobia.

Listen to supportive parents of trans kids who have watched their kids flourish after being listened to.

While @jk_rowling is condescendingly tweeting from her mansion, black trans women are fighting for our lives. Trans kids are at home scared and navigating unsupportive environments and the government are debating our civil rights.

J.K. Rowling, you are not helping us.

STOP.
