مستخلص: Accessing medical resources has not always been easy for marginalized communities. This article addresses a series of barriers trans African American patients experience. We examine two sites of resistance to explore (a) African Americans' use of complementary and alternative medicine throughout history and (b) trans tactics addressing institutional oppression. We explore these experiences through an intersectional feminist lens. By providing these insights, we hope to make room for further research to be conducted to better assist marginalized communities.
