just announced that she is going to be playing
in a upcoming biopic named Taali. Shreegauri Sawant is a transgender activist.

The post has garnered a lot of attention and press. Including a whole lot of engagments. Among the comments, you shall find several comments by q***r icons, q***r folks and allies. Some explain in long notes, and others are understandably annoyed, leaving short and quick comments. Most frustrated because like *t put it "what's the point of all the sensitization work done already"

While so many folks have left amazing comments there, and also has done an incredible compilation content of the comments left there. Honestly the comments supporting or congratulating or hyping her are the vast majority. y.

While so many folks have left amazing comments there, and also has done incredible compilation of the comments left there.

But in all honestly, the comments supporting or congratulating or hyping the announcement are the vast majority.

A reflection of our voice in society really, this micro cosmos of the comments. Comments supporting her, excited for the new heights she will reach. One comment telling her to screen it at a film festival in Canada, because we know how festivals love using our stories.

Just like in society and life we are a minority and our voices often drowned out. So it is in this comments section.

This time it seems our voices are being drowned out in the first biopic celebrating our very voices itself.

So I sat through the night and wrote my thoughts to her in this content. With a discomforting certainity that my voice will be lost.
