I was born white and in my professional life people still see me as a 37 year old white accountant named Colin Anderson but I transitioned to black about 5 years ago. My whole life I just felt black so I knew I had to go through with it. I identify as a 45 year old pimp named Percy Washington, an "OG" if you will. Its been pretty tough because there is a real stigma these days with human traffickers, not the same respect I used to see. And on top of that I am beginning to worry that cis racial blacks (black people who were black from birth) may not see me as one of their own anymore. Even white people are getting uppity with me. Last week I was at one of the BLM protests and this white twink in a beanie and Che Guevara shirt started accosting me because some of the language I tend to use in the streets, lecturing me racism and chit, like how the **** would he know, hes white, he doesnt know the struggle that us trans blacks have to go through.

Anyone here have similar problems?
