Is BLM taking too much focus away from trans issues?

While I broadly agree with the aims of BLM and hope to one day live in a world with justice, equality and reperations, I worry sometimes that it's taking attention away from the exclusions and discriminations that trans folk face on a daily basis.
I don't think focus on one social issue takes away from another. Unless we're talking about the media but the media always has an agenda. Luckily, we live in the age of information and social media so we can push for awareness ourselves if we really want to.

Sorry to say but the media controls the issues. Right now it’s the racial issues that get the attention.

It is disgusting and I hope one day soon exclusion and discrimination of all will be a thing of the past.

I'd think focusing on intersectionality rather than who gets the spotlight is probably more productive.

Will you start a organization named TLM?

No. Trans people should get out there and create their own activist movement. It isn't Black peoples job to fight for you.

Not even remotely
