After Watching the video and hearing what all these people had to say is interesting. Bianca Leigh who is an actress and writer said how during her time of year when she was a child she didn’t what transgender was. Laverne Cox mention how when she would get on the train in New York City and people would just laugh because of her identity. Which people think that it’s okay to see it as joke with people’s identity and honestly I just think it’s not right. Everyone should be respected as if who they are. After hearing some of these other actress base on what they have to say while acting in these different shows had me surprise by what they said after because of what occurred in each scene they showed. Like Laverne Cox said don’t they thing about before creating these lines for the scenes. A question I had in mind is, what do you do when your dealing with situations where people do support transgender in public? I feel like these people who identify themselves as transgender probably go through a lot each day because there people who don’t support it. But then again I think that people who are transgender are brave enough to go out there in the world and show who they identify themselves as. Which is good because there shouldn’t be an issue with being who you are. This whole transgender situation affects society because that’s where inequality is occurring. Also discrimination is most likely to occur on daily in their jobs, schools, family, and in many other places. When this discrimination occurs I feel like it’s affecting transgender people mentally and physically. Some things that we can do to support transgender people is by doing a LGBT community organization, voting, volunteer in a group, having a conversation with them or even just spending some time with them. Also making sure there’s a lot of information spread around the city and when I mean information I mean positive information about these people, so that they can be heard as of who they actually are.
