Laverne Cox On MHP

Laverne Cox's highly anticipated debut appearance in #nerdland happened yesterday morning as she along with several castmates from Orange Is The New Black discussed the show and the issues revolving around incarcerated women highlighted by it.

Laverne not only discussed her groundbreaking OITNB Sophia Burset character, but also talked about some of the issues inherent in navigating the world as a Black trans woman.

For those of you who missed her segment of the Melissa Harris-Perry Show, here are the videos.

TransGriot Blog Mission Statement

The TransGriot blog's mission is to become the griot of our community. I will introduce you to and talk about your African descended trans brothers and trans sisters across the Diaspora, reclaim and document our chocolate flavored trans history, speak truth to power, comment on the things that impact our trans community from an Afrocentric perspective and enlighten you about the general things that go on around me and in the communities that I am a member of.

--Mission Statement compiled January 2, 2011
