Watch: Caitlyn Jenner confronted by trans<\/a> protesters at LGBTI charity event<\/b><\/p>\n

Caitlyn Jenner was confronted by several angry transgender protesters after leaving a charity event in Chicago on Thursday (12 November).<\/p>\n

The 66-year-old former Olympian was invited to give the keynote speech at a luncheon held by LGBTI charity Chicago House.<\/p>\n

‘Maybe this is the reason that God put me on this earth, to tell my story, to help other people because this is bigger than anything,’ she said.<\/p>\n

But protesters holding ‘I Ain’t Cait’ signs outside the Hilton Chicago said Jenner did not represent them.<\/p>\n

On a Facebook page for the protest, they described Jenner as ‘a clueless rich white woman<\/a> who thinks disenfranchised trans<\/a> women<\/a> of color should just pluck themselves up off the street and stop being so lazy,’ a reference to comments she made about transgender people who depended social security on her docu-series I Am Cait.<\/p>\n

”You are an insult to trans<\/a> people, you are an insult to women<\/a>,’ protester Monica James shouted over a loudspeaker.<\/p>\n

‘The $500 you spend at a luncheon is more than most black trans<\/a> women<\/a> are able to earn in a month.’<\/p>\n

According to the Chicago Tribune, Jenner stopped to talk briefly to James as she left the hotel.<\/p>\n

‘I would love to see you have a job. I love you,’ Jenner told James before getting into a black van.<\/p>\n

In an episode of her reality show, Jenner said people should not be totally dependent social security, even though transgender people are often discriminated against in employment.<\/p>\n

‘Don’t a lot of times they can make more not working with social programs than they actually can with an entry-level job?,’ she said.<\/p>\n

‘You don’t want people to get totally dependent on it. When they get in trouble, “Why should I work? I’ve got a few bucks. I’ve got my room paid for.”‘<\/p>\n
