I recently ran across a video re-posted by Monica Roberts of Transgriot, called “I’m Sorry for Killing Your Daughter?”  It is a poetic letter written by an African American Transgender Man to his father who is a pastor of a church.  This video struck a nerve with me.  At 31, years of age I live my life unapologetically.  But this video has got me thinking that even though I’m sure i’ve apologized in the past, I’m not sure I ever communicated as compassionately as this video does.

“I know as a pastor, this situations a disaster, especially when my lifestyle, contradicts our master… I’m sorry”
