Loading Laverne Cox data from Instagram. Please wait... @lavernecox : #fbf. Wow. The photo circa 2007 was taken at the iconic #LuckyChengs in the East Village of New York City. Working at Chengs was my survival job for many years while I pursued the dream. Sometimes a girl has to work many survival jobs before God decides you are ready to receive the dream. That job and the amazing queens I worked with at Chengs kept me alive for many years. What a journey its been! It's just a blessing to still be alive. #TransIsBeautiful #flashbackfriday
