Chris Cuomo apologized for a joke he made about gender pronouns during CNN's Equality Town Hall. But 'Pose' stars Indya Moore and Angelica Ross did not accept.
Cuomo later issued an apology for the remark and declared himself an LGBTQ ally. But a single “I’m sorry” tweet was not enough to convince Moore and Ross of his commitment to the cause.
“I’m glad you showed yourself this way so that people can see that everywhere trans people’s conversations are gatekept by cis people our lives and issues won’t matter,” tweeted Moore, whose pronouns are they, them and theirs. “Trans people’s pain and trauma is comedic relief not just to you, but to a vast part of this country.”
