The violence and harm perpetuated against Trans, NB & Intersex folks is relentless and people pay with their lives, their livelihoods, and we’re sick of it. It breaks my heart that such important people and platforms continue to ignore that.
@jvn @GraysonGoal @jvn NB stands for non black but I'm sure that isn't what you meant.
@jvn @GraysonGoal NB is AAVE. Much of the trans community has done a lot of work to NOT use "NB" for nonbinary so as not to appropriate. That's why we use either enby (though that's also controversial to many trans folks) or just say nonbinary. Thanks for your post!

@BeingCharisBlog @jvn Thanks for the reminder, Charis! JVN, here's another good post on the subject. NB meaning non-Black - and white folks not wanting to appropriate that shorthand - is actually how 'enby' came to be! radicalcopyeditor.com/2018/08/06/enb…
@GraysonGoal @BeingCharisBlog Great thanks for the info!
