Queer Life in the USA

“CRUZ, AKA JALESA 2007
COLUMBUS, OH

CRUZ 2007: First of all, not sure if I would call myself queer, but definitely trans. Trans, to me means being different. And that is something I am trying to understand. What I see when I look at this picture is a girl—maybe even a woman that needs to be set free. I keep seeing this familiar face, staring back at me and not knowing what it means. It is like a dream that you can’t wake up from and I am not sure I want to.”
