Enough Quote by Dominique Jackson

“In the realness categories, what happens is you walk and your peers judge you, because if you're not able to walk amongst your peers and pass as being cis male or cis female, then it's obvious that you haven't done enough work. They wanted you to be able to go outside and come back home safely.” quote by Dominique Jackson — Download Open image
