Hi, my name is Chrysanthemum Tran and I'm a writer.
Today I'm going to be sharing with you a poem I wrote called, "I Don't Even Like Sports." This poem poured out of me at midnight a week after the Rhode Island state legislature introduced an anti-trans sports bill. I was trying to make coherent how befuddling it is for fascism to aim its things at trans girls and trans women playing sports particularly because I don't really know anything about sports and beyond that the only sport I ever wanted to do, gymnastics, was out of reach for me.
