My name is Pamuela Halliwell, and I am a Black woman. I am more than a woman, I am also a transgender woman. I am a woman who wears many hats and does many things. I am therapist at the San Diego LGBT Community Center, which has proudly served the transgender, nonbinary and gender nonconforming community for decades. I am secretary of the San Diego Black LGBTQ Coalition, which last year proudly started San Diego’s first Emergency Fund for the Black Transgender Community. I am also a member of the Gender Phluid Collective, a program that primarily serves to support BIPOC LGBTQ communities.
