Caitlyn Jenner addressed the British Parliament this week, urging them not to repeat the same mistakes on the trans community that Donald Trump has made. The address was the featured speech at Channel 4’s annual diversity lecture.

She started, “When I came out, the first year was very good, everything was going along great and then all of a sudden I became this person of privilege. I didn’t ‘get it’ when it came to the trans community, we have a very marginalized community and I didn’t get it and I got so much of this for so long. I will never apologize for everything I’ve been able to do because I’ve worked very hard and I’m not going to apologize for working hard and being successful. But what that does is gives me a sense of privilege, but it also gives me a platform.”

“I always suggest to every trans person out there, everybody has a platform that they can utilize to make it just a little bit better for the next generation coming up,” she added.
