'Everyone else used the same picture of Riah except Kim, and it makes me question if she really cares about Black Trans Lives,' Riah Milton's cousin told BuzzFeed News.
"The trans leaders signing this statement work day in and day out to build and strategize towards what liberation may look like for all of us — and HRC should not claim to lead this for us," they wrote.
Maurisha said the graphic contributes to the erasure of Black trans women, who already face disproportionate rates of deadly violence. "It’s trendy to say that you support Black lives because nowadays you will get called out," she said. For cis celebrities like Kardashian West, Maurisha said it's"easy for them to just post these graphics and act like they’re in solidarity with Black Trans Women and the Black Lives Matter movement and go on with their day without doing the actual work because it’s not directly affecting them."
Elle Hearns, executive director of the Marsha P. Johnson Institute, an advocacy group for Black trans people, said it's necessary to engage in activism and call out injustices, but a lot of people are"performing activism as opposed to really doing their due diligence to understand the social injustices" that Black trans women face."Especially if it's for a moment," she added,"and not for a lifetime.
