this covers gay white people but what about trans white people? or how about just trans people in general? i do see what you’re saying but there’s still some gaps in what you’re saying. trans people especially are more likely to get bullied/targeted/assaulted or even murdered at worst, especially ones early into their transition or ones that don’t “pass”. not all trans murders are reported on the news and this is the part that concerns me.

black/poc communities regardless do get it extremely rough but we are also forgetting about the other minorities that face it pretty bad too. i personally don’t think we are ready for a “lgbt/trans lives matter” revolution yet, but for now we can only uplift other minorities till we can eventually get this far in progress.

You’re right- however this thread is about colleges & racial issues, not about LGBTQ or transphobia or other trans issues in particular.

Also- the discussion is about facing discrimination due to SKIN color.. trans people face discrimination, but not because they are white, it’s because they are trans- being white has nothing to do with it.

you said “white LGBTQ people face discrimination” and yes they do, but it’s not because they are white.  
POC face discrimination because of their color.  Do you get what I’m saying ? Because there is a difference between racial discrimination and gender discrimination/transphobia. 
 

you have not successfully proven to me how white people face discrimination for being white.  You’ve told me how white people can also face discrimination but for reasons other than being white. this whole conversation is about facing discrimination because of your race / skin color

i’m on the same page as you, i do agree that white people don’t get discriminated against purely for being white.

my point though is they can face discrimination in general ie sexuality and even disabilities. so ignoring the fact that discrimination and prejudice can be targeted towards anyone is not it. as far as racial issues, i do agree with you on this one.
