I am new to Substack and your interview was my first read. I enjoyed it very much and will continue to follow your postings. Now, just a little mature person sharing. It never ceases to amaze me how narrow minded and self worshiping some people can be. Not only do these people find it impossible to walk a mile in someone else's shoes, but they believe their shoes are the only ones that exist. You keep being the beautiful person you are, and walk right on by!
I was delighted to discover your work via the Substack featured post! It’s disheartening (but not surprising) that one person (pastor dude) can bring the whole comment section down. The positive would have far outweighed the negative if the community was given a chance to comment. But here we are! In small numbers but aligned.
I am grateful for your voice, and only discovered your work through the substack feature. I wish that hadn't come at a cost to you. I hope the platform learns how to show THEIR gratitude through their actions and upholding their responsibility. Thank you for sharing what you share.
First off, my heart leaped when I saw you as a featured publication. I knew exactly who you were speaking to and that your words have power. Thank you for allowing this community to witness the pain and stand with you in solidarity. The irony is not lost. Trying to belong in theses spaces can come at a great cost, especially when our pain is viewed as less significant. Tiny violences, indeed. Be well and I look forward to following your journey <3
