Anti-Black racism and cissexism have been strong motivators for Black trans and gender diverse (TGD) communities to engage in activism. Furthermore, Black TGD people have often been at the forefront of activist movements, yet they rarely receive recognition for their role in disrupting systems of oppression and contributing to liberation movements. Although researchers have documented that young Black and TGD people have played a crucial role in activist movements, they have yet to document the intersectional experiences of young Black TGD people within activism. This study used semistructured interviews to explore the experiences of 15 young Black TGD people within activism movements, including different forms of activism and factors related to involvement and impact. Reflexive thematic analysis resulted in five main themes and 13 subthemes as key aspects of activism: (a) community, (b) education, (c) identity, (d) intersectionality, and (e) prioritizing one’s well-being, plus 13 subthemes. We discuss implications for practice, training, and advocacy.

“我会变得引人注目，因为……这会帮助像我这样的其他人”：年轻的黑人跨性别者和性别多元化人士在激进主义工作中的经历

反黑人种族主义和顺性别主义一直是黑人跨性别和性别多元化（TGD）社区参与激进主义的强大动力。此外，黑人 TGD 人经常站在激进运动的最前沿，但他们在破坏压迫制度和为解放运动做出贡献方面的作用很少得到认可。尽管研究人员已经记录了年轻的黑人和 TGD 人在激进主义运动中发挥了至关重要的作用，但他们尚未记录年轻的黑人 TGD 人在激进主义中的交叉经历。这项研究使用半结构化访谈来探讨 15 名年轻的 TGD 黑人激进主义运动的经历，包括不同形式的激进主义以及与参与和影响相关的因素。反思性主题分析得出五个主要主题和 13 个次主题作为行动主义的关键方面：(a) 社区、(b) 教育、(c) 身份、(d) 交叉性和 (e) 优先考虑个人福祉，以及 13 个次主题。我们讨论对实践、培训和宣传的影响。
