A few years ago I produced this video to uplift the voices of the Black Queer and Trans community who were devastated by the Pulse tragedy in Orlando and yet were ignored by the media. None of the money raised after the shooting was shared with the Black survivors and families by the organizers of those fundraisers.

When we made this video, a new fundraiser was set up to help the Black survivors and families. That link is no longer functioning, unfortunately. We are currently asking for a new link for them, if there is one.

Many thanks to Robin, Cha Cha, and Birdie who made this video possible.
