Transgender Day of Remembrance, when we remember and honour people whose lives were lost due to transphobia, and raise awareness about anti-transgender violence. We remember a staggering and depressing 350 this year, the majority people of colour, for example 79% of the victims in the USA were of colour. This does not include those who lost their lives though discrimination in healthcare, of they were able to gain access at all.
Trans people should not have to learn to be resilient though all this. They should have a safe and inclusive environment for all.
Well put. It's hard for outsiders to comprehend the struggles.
