Thanks for Publishing My Photo, Global Citizen, in Will Andrea Jenkins Become the Highest Elected Trans Woman of Color In America?

Thanks for publishing my photo, Global Citizen (@GlblCtzn). It’s of Andrea Jenkins (@AndreaForWard8), who, as the title of the article says, may be the highest elected trans woman of color in America.

I was able to see Andrea speak, the day after Capital TransPride in Washington, DC. I admit, I am not a champagne brunch type of person (we are all ultimately misfits); however when Andrea and Danica Roem got up to describe their goals as future elected officials, I was instantly interested and impressed.

Nothing makes a physician happier than seeing people in control of their own destiny 🙂 .

More photographs from the day below, enjoy.

Andrea Jenkins hopes to take her advocacy to the next level.

A great day after @capitaltranspride to see two trans candidates, Danica Roem (VA house of delegates) and Andrea Jenkins (Minneapolis City Council). Health comes from communities controlling their own destinies. @victoryfund
