ID 2: Text on a black background that says, “How can I request aid? Are you Black, trans, and in need of support for things like food, housing, medical bills, educational costs, etc.? Leave a comment below with your information, including how others can give to you (e.g., CashApp, Venmo, etc.).”
ID 3: Text on a black background that says, “How can I help others? Have $5 or more to spare? Scroll through the comments and find someone to send it to! Then comment with an emoji like a pink heart or trans pride flag so that others can see who still needs some love. Not in a position to help financially? That’s okay! You can still share this post on your story or with those you know.” source

When Mom Called Me “Son” 🥹
From childhood, Ray felt drawn to presenting as male but tried to mask it as he grew older. When he learned what being transgender meant, however, it was like an epiphany that perfectly described his feelings. In a car ride with his mom, he nervously asked his mother for a boy’s haircut, marking the first step in acknowledging his true self. His family adapted, and while it took some time, they would eventually learn to call him Ray and use male pronouns. The defining moment came in a hospital when his mom referred to him as her son, a small but powerful confirmation that he was truly seen and accepted.
