Laverne Cox opens up about being attacked in Los Angeles over the weekend.
After experiencing a transphobic attack in Los Angeles on Saturday, Laverne Cox is speaking out about the assault and offering words of encouragement to the trans community where this type of encounter is, sadly, all too common. Cox, who described being “in shock,” broke down the attack in an Instagram video, and how it started with a man “aggressively” asking Cox and her friend for the time. He then asked “Guy or girl?” and that’s when Cox knew the situation was going south.
