Back to a time where where transitions weren't for attention or the male gaze.

We transitioned to be the women, we always felt that we were.

Taking pride in our womanhood, in a world built off of patriarchy that tried, and continues to try to erase us.

Now its up to us, in the face of adversity, to build the world that we want to see that has equal rights for all people.

YOUR ONLINE OPINIONS ON TRANS PEOPLE HONESTLY DONT MEAN SHIT!!!

Over the last 30 years I have lost some extremely great people who loved me dearly.

People who were out here ACTUALLY on the front lines of trying to liberate all of us, while being overworked, undervalued and underpaid.

Pride has become this performative spectacle where everyone is fighting to be seen in a world that attempts to diminish our identities.

Folks CLAIM they care during these made up performative months to get everyone to unify but as soon as the month is over, its "business as usual"

For Pride I am currently crowdfunding $10000 to rebuild and give back to the community I serve. If youve ever actually cared, you would donate to the cause in assisting me liberate all of us.

I have been involved with this scene 30 years entertaining and a decade of speaking to the injustices we face and I will not be made to feel that the changes we all would like to see are a burden.

If you feel that way, get the fuck off my page.

There is no shame in needing help. Often times folks will drain your work, energy, love, and spirit for their entertainment while simultaneously assuming that youre ok, because you smile and constantly feed into others.

I have sacrificed so much in the last 10 years being a public figure expected to give back shit I dont even have, while still showing up and creating the world I want to see helping to liberate black people, gay people, trans people, speaking truth to power, and speaking up and out to the injustices I see.

I have several businesses that people refuse to share.
I apply for funding from organization that claim to assist trans people and get denied

I am exhausted as within the last 3 years, I have lost my mother, my home, and 15 years worth of stability, and im STILL HERE to talk about it.

Anyone else would have ended their life.

During this Pride season to those in the position, I am currently rebuilding my life, therefore I am making a request this Pride for help, and I am unashamed of it because I know who I am and know what ive done.

I will no longer be made to feel like im a burden or that I am begging folks because I GIVE MORE THAN I RECIEVE!

If I have inspired you, made you think, made you laugh or educated you in something you didnt know before, in ballroom, business, sexuality, or gender, please take this time to return the favor by finding it in your heart to donate as I rebuild.

My payment platforms im available will be in the comments.

I am looking to raise $10,000. Thank you so much in advance and im sure we can do this together.

Sharing is free. It costs you absolutely nothing to get this post in front of someone that can pitch in.

If I can make my goal before June 30th, I will donate 25% ($2500) to those not in the position to donate reinvesting in the community i serve.

When donating use the code PRIDE with the rainbow flag in the subject line.

Save the judgement because. "You Ain't God Bitch" 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Enjoy your Friday!

So many people scream they want change, but you have people speaking for change yall dont support them. I need help. Like im speaking at The University of Penn for goodness sake. Lost my mom in April of 2023, Was just homeless in June in 2025, and have started the process of building myself back up brick by brick.

I was stable for 15 years in the same home, while speaking on behalf of the community im a part of, while putting a target on my own back.

Creator suppression, Cultural appropriating, as well as dealing with government attacks on my community and I speak truth to power alone.

It would be nice for the community that im speaking for would finally invest in me for a change.

I need clothing, shoes, hair, feminine things, hygiene and toiletries, because I have literally been giving everything to maintaining my place.

Ive been in my place now 7 months on a fixed income with minimal side jobs and I will completely stop all this shit before I sacrifice this place for a community that doesn't give two flying fucks about me.

Im speaking passionately and from the bottom of my heart. If you cannot help support my cause please get theee fuck on. Im done proving to you bitches that im a good person, cause I dont owe anyone anything.

IVE GIVEN ENOUGH!

For those of you who would like to pitch in, the links are in the comments.

I have 9 days.

Thank you in advance.
XOXO NIAMBI (Scholar In Residence at The University of Pennsylvania)

In 1992 I entered ballroom a scared, hurt and abused child, seeking family and community, because it truly felt like no one understood me.

I was dealing with identity issues because there really wasn't language for how I was feeling, with my body not matching my brain.

Found the ballroom and cultivated over 30 years of family, friendships, and relationships, through trial and error, some good, many were bad, due to them not really being authentic.

People aligning with me based off the talent I provide, rather than the person I am. Also with many thinking, because I was so young that I could be bullied and continuously taken advantage of with zero consequences.

In 2015, I started Learn YOUR History a love letter to classic ballroom, highlighting the stars, statements, legends, icons and pioneers of ballroom, paying tribute to the community that birthed me.

Many businesses and organizations to follow including Trans In-Formation Black Trans Enterprise and NiambiSees Spiritual Readings

Have been speaking out on the genocide and violence of trans people since 2018, which many of what i said fell on deaf ears, because people dont believe shit until it knocks on their door.

Defying all odds and statstics Today February 1st 2026 I stand before you as The FIRST Black Trans Executive Director of Harbor Justice and Wellness.

My journey is far from over.

THIS IS THE BEGINNING!

Transgender Day of Remembrance, also known as the International Transgender Day of Remembrance, has been observed annually from its inception on November 20, 1999, to memorialize those who have been murdered as a result of transphobia.

Transgender Day of Remembrance originated in 1999 with a vigil held by advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith in memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was murdered in 1998.

The vigil commemorated Hester and all transgender people lost to violence, marking the start of an annual tradition to honor victims of anti-transgender violence.

The initial spark: In 1998, Rita Hester was murdered in her Boston apartment, and her death went unsolved. A year later, Gwendolyn Ann Smith was surprised to find that Hester's murder, and that of another transgender man Brandon Teena, had been largely forgotten.

The first vigil: Smith organized the first Transgender Day of Remembrance vigil in 1999 to memorialize Hester and other victims of violence. The first event took place in both Boston and San Francisco, as both Hester and another victim, Catherine "Kate" Nash, were murdered in November.

Expansion: The observance grew into an annual tradition, with events taking place in cities around the world to remember those who have been killed due to transphobia.

I Niambi E Stanley hereby declare November Trans Awareness Month.

You will learn us TODAY or suffer the consequences!
