When I started to become a content creator, I did it as a way to talk about things that I'm passionate about: Human Rights, Music, The Beatles, and Marvel Movies. It was also a way to fill in a void in my life after losing my dad a few months ago to a terminal illness. 

Right when I started making content and participating on live streams, I've been bullied by a person who claims to be a man of god, but decides to use their platform to bully not only myself, because I am trans, but also has had a history of making videos about others that are LGBTQ, as well as people with disabilities and are handicapped. 

It is no secret that YouTube does not punish these content creators that bullies others, and they continue to allow these users to make heinous videos about people that they never met. There is a BuzzFeed article about other YouTube channels who were subject to bullying, but YouTube refuses to dealt with these channels.

I've decided to start this petition to urge YouTube and Google to once and for all stand up against bullying and take down these sites, as well as to hire a team of people to also monitor these channels. 

This being Pride Month, and YouTube celebrating Pride, they should be out there for our community and not capitalize on it while LGBTQ creators are being subjected to bullying and harassment.

Do Your Job YouTube!!!
