Interview between Time.news Editor and Vivian Jenna Wilson
Editor: Welcome, Vivian, and thank you for joining us today. Your decision to potentially leave the United States following Donald Trump’s re-election is monumental. Can you explain what led to that decision?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: Thank you for having me. You know, for a long time, I have been deeply concerned about the direction this country is heading in, especially regarding the rights and recognition of transgender individuals. After the election news, I felt a heightened sense of urgency around my personal safety and wellbeing.
Editor: You’ve made strong statements about the state of the U.S. for transgender people. Can you elaborate on what you see as the main issues?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: Absolutely. The U.S. has become, in many ways, an increasingly hostile environment for transgender individuals. With Trump’s proposed policies—such as restricting hormone therapies and banning transgender women from participating in women’s sports—it’s clear that there’s a movement that doesn’t just ignore our rights but actively works against them. It’s disheartening.
Editor: Your father, Elon Musk, has been one of Trump’s most vocal supporters and has financially backed his campaigns. How does this impact your relationship with him?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: (smiling ruefully) As many know, I’ve cut ties with my father since June 2022. His actions and political support greatly contrast with my values and the values I believe our society should embody. I can’t align myself with someone whose political stances jeopardize the rights of marginalized communities, especially my own.
Editor: That’s a difficult position to be in. What do you hope to achieve in raising awareness about the issues facing transgender people?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: I want to amplify the voices of those who may feel silenced or overlooked. The more we share our stories and educate others, the more we can push back against harmful narratives and policies. It’s about creating a safe space for everyone, regardless of their gender identity.
Editor: In your post on Threads, you mentioned that you don’t see your future in the United States. Can you share some thoughts on where you might go, or what your vision for the future entails?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: I haven’t landed on a specific location yet, but I am exploring places where LGBTQ+ rights are more recognized and protected. My vision is to find a community that values inclusivity, where I can express myself freely, forge meaningful connections, and feel secure about my existence.
Editor: Your situation resonates with so many. As a young activist, what actions do you believe community members can take to bring about change?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: I think the first step is to engage in local advocacy—amplifying voices within our communities, supporting organizations that focus on transgender rights, and standing against discrimination whenever we see it. Voting matters, too. Holding leaders accountable and supporting candidates who uplift marginalized communities can drive meaningful change.
Editor: Wise words, Vivian. Lastly, what message do you want to leave our readers about resilience and hope in these trying times?
Vivian Jenna Wilson: I want everyone to know that change is possible, and we are stronger together. Despite the darkness surrounding us, there is a wealth of support and love in the community. We must hold on to hope and continue to fight for what is right. Your voice matters, and it can make a difference.
Editor: Thank you so much for your insight, Vivian. Your courage and determination to advocate for yourself and others is inspiring. We wish you the best on your journey ahead.
Vivian Jenna Wilson: Thank you! It was great talking with you.
