When she first made her transphobia public, I speak for those of us who genuinely loved and looked up to her, that shit broke our hearts. Me, I had graduated from her workshop + published a whole piece about it, I actually developed my nonfiction voice there.

We are truly all we got. I'm very proud of debut me for standing by my beliefs, because the anxiety of knowing you've pissed off CNA right in your publication week?? BRUH. You're there calculating if the loss of her support will tank your career. Over common tweets. LMFAO.

If anything, take heart and know that your chi is very much awake, no matter who you're facing down or their perceived power. I am fucking honored to be writing books for Black queer and trans people. We are impossible things cracking the world open.

As for CNA and that white woman, at this point, anyone who supports them knowing their views is also openly supporting transphobia. There is no justifying it. Kill your idols.

Here’s pictures of Güs in a patch of sunlight to cleanse the timeline. In this house, we stan, support, and pay Black trans women

PS: I run a Patreon where 100% of the income goes directly to Black trans people in need. I post only a few times a month but you get insider gist, writing tips, early cover reveals, etc. for as little as $1 a month
Please share + retweet!

I’ve been given a heads up that Adichie has recently stated in a public interview that she’s planning to write a ‘call out letter’ to address ‘lies’ about her? From other statements in her interview, it’s fair to assume that retaliation for this thread is a possibility.

There’s been so much transphobia directed at me since I disclosed in 2018, and I’m not in the mood for the wave of bigoted violence a prominent cishet figure like her can incite, especially from other Nigerians, so I’m not going to subject myself to that.

I trust that there are other people who will pick up machetes to protect us from the harm transphobes like Adichie & Rowling seek to perpetuate. I, however, will be in my garden with butterflies, trying to figure out how to befriend the neighborhood crows. Find me on the gram
