If you follow any trans people here you’ll probably see some posts about Trans Day of Remembrance today.

Like everyone, we all have special days we mark… birthdays, those of loved ones, anniversaries, graduation dates, first kiss, when we got a beloved pet.

But there are two days we in the trans community all mark.
One of them being Trans Day of Visibility in March and the other today, Trans Day of Remembrance. .

#TDoV is essentially: “Hey! Look at us. We really do exist.”
#TDoR is: “Please stop murdering us.”

There have been at least 30 trans and gender diverse people who have been killed this year. There have been too many trans people who have attempted suicide and so many who think about it constantly because local, state and federal governments actively and deliberately make it difficult for us to exist.

We need your help allies. Speak up in our defense when you can.

@WrenArcher It gives me a sense of ever-so-tiny achievement that I can tell my friends & colleagues are afraid of shit-talking trans people around me & incurring an epic verbal broadside; it fucking should have social consequences to be an overt dick & what little I can do in that regard, I do not with pleasure but with a sense of urgency that I cannot fathom isn't more common. This is human rights, motherfuckers - get with the program.

@jwcph
You are an awesome human.
Thank you so much for standing up for what is right and creating awareness. 🥰

@WrenArcher If I deserve that label it's because the bar is too fucking low. Hoping we can lift it - I don't need to be called awesome, I just want basic human decency to be the socially enforced norm 🙏
