On Representation and Education

  • "Having transgender characters leads to more visibility, which creates education. Education can hopefully lead to everyone treating our community with acceptance and love."
  • "Education and visibility are super important. With that visibility comes the knowledge required to be accepting of someone else. If you are educated, you can make less ignorant decisions."
  • "Honestly, I feel like kids are much more open to change, because they're learning about the world and about themselves. But adults can be so stuck in their own realities and what they've lived in the past that they don't realise how things change, times change, ideas change, and that they have to open up their minds and move on from the era they grew up in."
  • "If someone is judging you without knowing the content of your character, don't listen to them. It's not okay; I'm not going to tolerate it. In fact, it motivates me, because it shows me that there is still more education that needs to happen. I will continue advocating for my community until it's resolved, and the hate is gone."
