UK trip
When Black Lives Matter's Director of Communications, Shanelle Matthews, asked Cazembe Jackson if he could go to the UK for a week to speak about how BLM is organizing in the States, "I felt extremely honored and apprehensive. My passport said male for the gender, but I hadn’t had top surgery. I didn’t think I would “pass” and cis gender (non trans). I was scared of being the recipient of transphobia without my community there to protect me."
- I also got to pick a person to come with me, and I chose Prentis Hemphill, #BLM’s Director of Healing Justice. They were the BEST travel companion.
National Union of Students (NUS), the group that brought Jackson to London, invited him to represent Black Lives Matter and the Movement for Black Lives on a panel titled, “Trump, Brexit and Beyond.”. Jackson focused on how Trump came to power in the US, "and spoke about the strategy the New Confederacy implemented in building a racist, xenophobic, homophobic, sexist, and capitalist electoral college that elected Trump, even when he failed to win the popular vote. I also spoke about the dangers of having a movement that focuses solely on resisting Trump’s administration". [1]
