I WOULD LIKE TO START A SUPPORT GROUP/DISCUSSION GROUP FOR QUEER/TRANS PEOPLE OF COLOR WHO DATE OR HAVE CLOSE RELATIONSHIPS WITH WHITE QUEERS. or generally want to talk about their experiences w/ white queer people?

there are lots of white queer people who i hold very near and dear to my heart. my best friend/platonic life partner, my girlfriend, and many of the queer people who i am closest to are white. my mom is also white and is kind of queer. i think they all identify and work on being anti-racist white people but there are still, obviously, plenty of instances where i feel alienated and/or silenced by the unintentional affects of their whiteness/white privilege. it is not uncommon that i am in a space where everyone is queer and/or trans, and i am the only person of color.  i think right now i have lots of things i need to explore regarding WHITE QUEERS and my experiences with them. i would like to do this with other QTPOC folk. is anyone interested in starting a private facebook group, for starters? does anyone have any recommendations for other ways this group could happen? 

please signal boost! <3

this also should include queer and trans people of color who have white family members, such as queer people of color who were transracially adopted or come from a mixed race family.

signal boost because important

that sounds really cool

I would be interested but I don’t want to be presumptuous; I know a lot of the issues people of colour face don’t apply to me because I pass as white and was raised with that expectation. (which is a whole different discussion group that I would actually really value.) But regardless, I want to signal-boost this, because I think it’s a really great idea and would be a really valuable tool.
