Nearly two years into Trump’s second term, Laverne Cox is feeling the administration’s impact on her wallet as a Black trans woman.
The Emmy winner recently explained that she’s “lost so much money” now that brands are “very scared” to work with her after the White House’s ongoing destruction of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs.
“I’ve lost so much money because of this administration, the past year,” Cox told Attitude. “I managed to stay busy with acting and branding work, as well as speaking engagements. But I never thought college speaking gigs would dry up.”
