Miss Ross Live
We are worthy of respect, love, and anything else our hearts desire when we understand that worth does not lie outside ourselves. All people have worth—it is only a matter of helping each person find it for themselves. Learn to discover and demand what you are worth from a trans woman of color who has done the same.
