At Boston Women’s Fund, we recognize that although we are all navigating oppressive systems, some folks are even further marginalized. We're highlighting Ericka Hart and her work, specifically during Women’s History Month, to center support for who we believe to be the most vulnerable individuals: the LGBTQIA+ community, and for us, specifically, Black trans women.
We all need to consider how we can create safer spaces for queer, trans, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming folks. As an organization, we are dedicated to building an environment that pushes beyond the inclusion of the LGBTQIA+ community and instead fosters true belonging. Ericka Hart has incredible knowledge to share regarding just that, and we invite you to learn with us.
In Solidarity,
Natanja Craig-Oquendo
