Dear community

Dear community, As The Black is Black TransCommunity’s new Executive Director, I am honored and humbled to lead this amazing organization in a new direction and begin a new chapter. We are truly poised for a bright future. More importantly, I am excited to join the many leaders, founders of sibling organizations of New York, and those globally in the fight for all that we can achieve together. What inspired me most a few years ago when I learned about The Black is Black TransCommunity was its dedication to the Black Trans Community; the provisions through mutual-aid and collective action; its uplifting of Black Trans Femmes like myself, encouraging and empowering us to create our own futures. The strength and resiliency that we each possess and that exists in our community is beyond inspiring. It is not only an honor to be of service to you, but my promise. Bisimaa Fernadez. Executive Director
