Hi guys, it’s Bambi again. I know that I have not called really, in a while. It’s been a few months. I was transferred to another jail in New Albany, Indiana, in the Floyd County Jail.
I have been watching the news, keeping up with things, and at least attempting to, and I have seen that our current president now, Donald Trump, has signed an executive order for the Federal Bureau of Prisons to immediately cease and desist of all transgender healthcare, meaning no surgeries, no more medication. It doesn’t matter if you were already on the medication. But when, if you are sentenced to do a federal prison sentence, it doesn’t matter, you, it’s, there’s no more treatment.
I feel like this is unjust. This needs to be heard. It doesn’t matter to me, of how many people hears it. It needs to be heard all over America. This is just — it’s not right. I believe that everybody has their own opinion, their own beliefs, even as a president. It’s a joke.
He has got 34 felonies, convicted felonies, and they still made him President. And it doesn’t make any sense. It doesn’t make any sense at all. It’s to me, it’s very mind boggling. And me being transgender and going through the transition and the stress that comes with it and the depression is; it doesn’t make anything any better.
And so myself, at the time being, my attorney advised me, my federal attorney just told me two days ago that if I do get a federal sentence and sentenced to federal prison time, that I am no longer going to be allowed to continue taking my medication. I’m going to assume that there’s going to be a lot of litigation off the back of this, to try to block and stop what he has done. And I said, that’s what needs to be done.
We all, as a community of the LGBT have a story of some sort of another, and it needs to be heard, because when you go without being heard, you end up getting this brokenness within you, and it’s hard to be able to try to fix that brokenness. You can’t do anything with it because nobody understands and the ones that do understand, they’re not able to hear your story, they’re not able to advocate for you. They’re not able to try to help you in any way, shape or form that they can to be that other voice for you, when ourselves can’t have that voice because we are confined within these walls that they refer to as the prison industrial complex. And, I feel like just as much as everybody else, that it needs to be abolished, every single one of them it needs to be done away with.
Our system is very corrupt when it comes to the LGBT community, and especially, more specifically, when it comes to the trans community, whether you are a trans woman or you are a trans man, every person deserves to be heard and to be recognized, to be treated equally and just as fair as a cisgender man or a cisgender woman. Everybody are human. We are all human. The only difference that separates us is our skin color, because we all bleed the same blood.
We was all created equally, just the same. And it just needs to be heard. It needs to be heard from anybody that is willing to hear it.
For those of you that are out there that are struggling right now because of these new executive orders, we need to stand up and fight, not physically fight, but stand up and fight and pull family together and unite everybody. For everybody to be heard and regardless of who it’s from, or for people to have the ability to be a legal advocate for people.
The county jail that I am currently in, I can receive text messages, instant text messages, like you were using a cell phone. You can set up an account if you want to contact me on secures net—I’m sorry— securustech.net. It gives you option to go to, ‘text connect’. And if you set up the information, you can instantly text me and it will pop up on my tablet and receive it, and you can communicate with me.
My jail information that would be needed to set up this account is Roger King. My jail number is 153982. If you set up an account, it is only 10 cents per text messages, and it’s it’s very cheap, very easy, and it’s instant messages. You don’t have to wait days on end.
If you, anybody, that is willing to be able to communicate with me that would like to hear my story, or to be able to advocate for me in any way, shape or form—I would love to hear from you. I would love to give a very long, loving shout out to a very good friend of mine. He is known as a part of the Pendleton 2, from Pendleton, Indiana, and his name is Christopher Trotter. I have a lot of love for you, and thank you for always being there for me.
Once again, if you would like to reach out to me, you are more than welcome to, no matter who you are. It doesn’t matter if you are a cisgendered person or if you are a part of the LGBT, you are more than welcome to reach out to me at any given time, just set up an account. Once again at securustech.net, and you go to ‘text connect’ and set up your information. Once again, my information that you will need to set up that account for Texas is Roger King, 153982. I am in the Floyd County Jail in New Albany, Indiana.
Thank you for those of you that are possibly listening right now or that will eventually listen and hear this. Thank you and have a good night, and may the Lord be with every single one of you.
