Black people right now are like ‘Our existence is valid’; trans women, trans men…non binary black folk are like our existence is valid. YES, why can’t anybody see that? I don’t understand." You might light this candle and look to Vico for inspiration and guidance in: advocating for gender neutral language, creating a drag persona, fighting back against oppressive institutions Candle is soy wax and burns for 10 hours.
