Ukuya phi eUnited States ukuba unguTrans

Uninzi lwethu lwamangaliswa kukuba i-United States i-Cheeto-in-Chief ayikhange irhoxise i-Order Order kaMongameli u-Obama ngokubhekisele kukhuseleko lwe-LGBTQ yomanyano lwabasebenzi. Kungenxa yokuba uTrump ujonge phezulu kakhulu kunabasebenzi baseburhulumenteni kuphela-injongo yakhe yi-US-wide umthetho oyilwayo wenkululeko yonqulo . Oku kuyakwenza wonke ummi we-LGBTQ, undwendwe & nabakhenkethi eMelika. Umthetho oyilwayo-oyilwayo ojikeleze iWashington, DC okwethutyana- uzakubizwa ngokuba yiNkululeko eNkulu yezeNkolo ukuphendula i-Bowling Green Massacre, okanye enye into. usondele kuloo nto. Kodwa kufuneka siyibize ngokuba iyintoni: umthetho omkhulu wetyala.

Xa abanamaphiko basekunene-okanye amaNazi ngamafutshane-bethetha ngenkululeko yonqulo, bathetha inkolo yabo kuhlobo lwabo lwabantu. Kule meko, amhlophe amaRiphabliki e-hetero-normative cisgender christians. Yinkcazo emxinwa ngokwenene yenkululeko uninzi lweMelika olungangeni kuyo. Xa singangeni kweli qela lincinci, kwaye abantu be-LGBTQ bengenalo, kuya kufuneka siqale ukukhangela ukhuseleko, kwaye e-US, enye yeendlela ezilungileyo zokuphucula ubomi bakho kukushiya amazwe angenawo ukulingana.

Ukuhamba kunzima; singabotshwa yimisebenzi yethu, usapho okanye iimeko zezezimali, kodwa ngaphambi kokuba kungene umthetho oyilwayo, ngoku lixesha elifanelekileyo lokuba sijonge ukuba ngawaphi na amaziko anobuntu be-LGBT e-U.S. Nge-3 kaFebruwari, 2017, IMAP ikhuphe ingxelo malunga noku, kwaye ndiza kuyaphula loo nto ibe lula ukwetyisa izilayi zepitsa zolwazi, kunye nolwazi oluvela kwiKratshi nakwiU.S. Transgender Survey. Nceda unikeze eyakho i-pizza rat.

Iphi eyona ndawo imbi ungaba kuyo ukuba une-LGB? IGeorgia iphakamise uluhlu njengombuso olinganayo ngokwasemthethweni, amanye amazwe angama-22 abhalwe njengolingano oluphantsi xa kufikwa kumalungelo abantu be-LGB, nakumazwe akumazantsi, kuphela yiNew Mexico ebhalwe njengolingano oluphezulu. Amehlo okhozi phakathi kwenu aya kuqaphela ukuba ndiyilahlile i-T (njengayo yonke imibutho ephambili ye-LGBT, * ba-dum-tcsh *) kuba imeko yabantu abadlulayo yahlukile.

Ngelixa ukutsiba okukhulu phambili kokuqhelana nokwabelana ngesondo bekusenzeka, ngakumbi ngomthetho kaMongameli u-Obama wokulingana komtshato ka-2015, abantu abadlulayo bashiyekile bexakekile ukuze babambe. Ukulungiselela ulwalamano ngokwesondo, akukho mazwe alinganayo, ngelixa ubunini bezesini, zingama-23 ngama-8 amazwe aphantsi ngokulingana. Ukuba uyi-LGB, uza kuba nexesha elinzima. Ukuba utshintshile, ngoku lixesha lokuba woyike. Ukusukela ukuba iRiphabhlikhi yaphulukana nedabi lokuziqhelanisa nokwabelana ngesondo, bajikela ekulweni isazisi, kwaye abazukuyeka.

Ukuba u-transgender ke amazwe anolona khuselo lusemthethweni kuwe:

Oko akutsho ukuba naziphi na ezi ndawo ziyi-nirvana (nangona inokukunceda umoya wakho weshumi elivisayo), kodwa banayo imithetho emininzi ekukhuseleni abantu abadlulayo kubandlululo. Kufanelekile ukuba uqaphele ukuba iNew York, Washington kunye neCalifornia ngokukodwa ziye zavakala kakhulu malunga nokugcina ukhuselo lwazo endaweni nokuba yintoni ebizwa ngokuba nguMongameli uTrump. Kwakhona khumbula ukuba ngenxa yokuba urhulumente enemithetho endaweni yokukhusela abantu abadlulayo, oko akuthethi ukuba banyanzeliswa ngokuchanekileyo.

Indawo enye apho i-US imbi kakhulu ivumela abantu abadlulayo ukuba bahlaziye izazisi zabo. Eli ayisiyonyathelo lokuqinisekisa kuphela kwinkqubo yokuhambisa abantu, ubomi bunokukhuseleka kakhulu xa umntu ene-ID efanayo. Yi-11% kuphela yabaphenduli kwi Uphando lweTransgender yaseU.S amagama abo kunye nesini bahlaziywa ngokuchanekileyo kuzo zonke ii-ID kunye neerekhodi, ngelixa ama-49% awanaso nasiphi na isazisi esifana negama labo, kwaye ama-67% awanaso nasiphi na isazisi esihambelana nesini sabo. Kulula kakhulu ukuhlaziya i-ID yakho eWashington D.C., kwiphondo laseWashington naseConnecticut.

Liphi elona lizwe lilungileyo onokuhlala kulo ukuba uyi-LGBTQ? California

Liphi elona lizwe libi kakhulu ukuba uhlala kulo ukuba uyi-LGBTQ? Jojiya

Ukuba umthetho oyilwayo wobuhlanga uqalisa ukusebenza, awuzukuchaphazela kuphela ubomi bakho bemihla ngemihla — busenokubusongela ubomi. Oogqirha banokwala ukunyanga abantu be-LGBT, kwaye ii-ambulensi zinokwala ukukusa esibhedlele. Kubantu abadlulayo, iziphumo zinokuba zibi nangakumbi, njengoko sele kunzima kakhulu kubantu abadlulayo ukuba bamkelwe ngugqirha ukuze baqale i-HRT, okanye nokuba bafumane unyango oluhloniphekileyo. Ukuba oogqirha bayala ukunyanga abaguli abadlulayo, inqanaba lokuzibulala sele liphezulu kakhulu kubantu abadlulayo kunokuba nzima ngakumbi.

Uphando lwaseMelika lwaseTransgender lubonisa inqanaba eliphezulu lokuphathwa gadalala kwabantu abadlulayo kwi2016: I-23% inamava ocalucalulo lwezindlu, phantse i-30% yaphathwa gadalala emsebenzini, kwaye i-31% yalelwa unyango olulinganayo kwiindawo zenkonzo yoluntu. Ngokunyuka kweNazism eMelika, ubundlobongela obujoliswe kwi-LGB kunye nabantu beTrans ngakumbi baya kuba mandundu. Ngo-2016, abantu abangama-27 babulawa (mhlawumbi babephakeme ngokwenyani), phantse bonke babengabafazi abanemibala ( TW ye-transphobia ).

Ukuba unelungelo lokuhamba, ke imigaqo emibini iyinyani kubo bonke abantu be-LGBTQ e-US: intloko emantla okanye intloko elunxwemeni. Iindawo ezisembindini nezisezantsi e-US sele zinzima kubantu be-LGBTQ kwaye kuya kusiba mandundu xa umntu obizwa ngokuba nguMongameli uTrump ekugqibeleni ebhengeza umthetho wakhe omkhulu.
