I went into heavy fact-checking mode in my piece for Assigned today, writing about what we do and do not know about the numbers of trans people who die violently.
The article I called out was conservative bullshit published by the National Review, but they're not the only ones who I've seen treat the HRC list as if it represented every trans person to have died violently. #trans #TDOR #news #journalism #factcheck
Transgender Day of Remembrance: As trans murder toll reaches 320, trans advocates say improved police protection is key to reducing violence.

Derzeit ist eine epetition an den deutschen Bundestag in der Mitzeichnungsphase. Sie engagiert sich für trans* Flüchtlinge und ist hier verlinkt: https://epetitionen.bundestag.de/petitionen/_2023/_08/_22/Petition_156274.nc.html
Angesichts des erst am 20.11. vergangenen Gedenktages an die ermordeten Trans* Personen weltweit (TDOR), scheint mir so eine Petition sehr wichtig. Daher bitte gerne teilen und zur Mitzeichnung einladen!

This "Trans Day of Remembrance," lots of folks reached out to let me know that I am visible and loved. Yet not a single one of them offered to buy me a squarerigger ship, a schooner, or even a modest sloop. Where are all the REAL allies at? 🧐🏳️⚧️🏴☠️
Mystical notions of saintly divinity actually allowed the performativity and fluidity of gender to become an inevitable feature of the subject’s self in this era of humankind. Spencer-Hall expresses that by creating this collection the editors ultimately seek to restore trans and genderqueer histories, dismantle white-supremacist cis-heteropatriarchy, and spread general trans and genderqueer joy.

Aujourd'hui je sais pas ce qui m'a pris mais je réinstalle instagram. Je me connecte, et là je tombe sur des images qui me choquent beaucoup. Des drag queens qui performent avec des danseurs sur scène, on entend une musique hyper entraînante, écran LED en fond, bref y'a du budget.
Excusez-moi mais :
1/ j'étais pas au courant que le #tdor était un évènement festif ??? /s
2/ le SEUL PÉTHÈNE DE JOUR où on peut se recueillir faut quand même qu'on se prenne la gifle de l'injonction à faire la fête pour lutter parce qu'on est la "communauté" LGBT n'est-ce pas 🙃 Vous pensez sincèrement que les 351688625698 de personnes qui ne viennent déjà pas à vos évènements parisiens inaccessibles et surchargés sensoriellement y sont là ?

#Trans #People Continue to Be #Murdered at #Extreme #Rates as #Republicans #Push #Transphobic and #Genocidal #Laws
The #HumanRightsCampaign (#HRC) released its #annualreport on #TransgenderDayofRemembrance (#TDoR), highlighting the disproporionate #violence #transgender and #gendernonconforming
people face.
#GwendolynAnnSmith: #Activist Behind #TransgenderDayofRemembrance (#TDoR)
Smith founded a #website called #RememberingOurDead, which acts as a #memorial to the #people who have #died as a direct result of #hatred and #prejudice based on #gender.
In 2023, the #NationalCenterForTransgendeEquality (#NCTE) revamped its approach in the #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance (#TDOR) report.
This year's edition expands its scope to include #transgender people who #died from #suicide or #healthissues like #LungCancer, alongside those lost to being #murdered, providing a more comprehensive view of the #challenges faced by the #trans #community.

On the #TransDayofRemembrance, some #advocates are #honoring #lives lost to more than #homicide
#TDoR was formed to #honor lives lost to #murder. But everyday #discrimination leads to #transgender #deaths that should be #honored too, some #advocates say.

I forgot to mention for #tdor that Ryucheru also left us this year. Not just trans but a celebrity. Maybe those in the west aren't as familiar with her but she was pretty famous and had just started presenting publicly as a woman.
I meant to post this yesterday for #TransDayOfRememberence #TDOR but I failed.
@jvw wrote and performed this powerful rememberence. I wish that she didn't have to, but I'm glad that she did.

@paulsilver Thanks! Eh, i've had better birthdays. Been getting a bit frustrated lately with the "I'm not racist but..." crowd. Not standing for that crap on my birthday, which is also #TDOR, so emotions already running high. Writing stuff down seems to make ideas a bit more real, maybe I need a moleskine again.
Manifestation importante à #Padova hier pour le #TDoR, mais aussi suite à un #féminicide récent qui a eu un fort retentissement. « Détruis tout », mot d’ordre extrait d’une poésie de Cristina Torres Cáceres a été repris par la sœur de la défunte dans une tribune publiée dans le Corriere della Sera : « il n’y a pas de monstre, (…) le meurtrier n’est pas malade, c’est le fils sain du patriarcat. (…) Pour Giulia ne faites pas une minute de silence, pour Giulia, brûlez tout. »
Auch nach dem #TDoR - Gewalt, Mobbing und Diskriminierung von trans* Menschen ist bedauerlicher Alltag. Anstatt Blind mitzumachen weil es andere ja auch tun, ist es ein Leichtes Betroffene anzuhören und mit ihnen darüber zu reden! Für eine Welt ohne Hass für Alle 🫶🏻

With #TDOR gone, and the officially known list of vicitms of hate crimes is out there, names of some vicitims are missing:
Shay Patten Walker was an
#nonbinary activist who worked as a gender consultant on the #netflix series #SexEducation. The character of Cal was directly influenced by them.
Shay took their own life. And that's the reason official list don't carry those names. They aren't recognized as a result of the trans hate they received, even though it clearly is
Les gens tristes qui n'ont que des méchancetés à dire, gardez les pour vous et prenez soin de vous au lieu de prendre la tête aux autres.
Le #tdor c'est pour honorer nos mort·e·s, pas pour se bagarrer.
Just saw a trans voices cabaret that blew my mind. Everyone sang musical theater pieces that they always wanted a chance to perform. The performances were incredible! Everyone did an outstanding job.
There are a bunch of clips up on their IG story. Highly recommend checking it out! There is a stream still available for the week if you want to see the whole performance!

A few years ago a friend made a meme about "Who would post transphobia on Pride month?" With Rowling waking up.
Turns out Musk is saying "hold my beer" by suing Media Matters about the article saying that extremist content is shown next to ads, protecting extremists on the #TDoR
I'm out at work (being part of the community actually landed me the job since I now work for a program that helps queer people get jobs; I'm also out to our clients) and was asked if I wanted to write something for #TDoR. I said absolutely.
I'm not going to recount what I said, it was short and benign because I didn't want to re-traumarize anyone who was obligated to be there, but in the course of writing my little speech I looked up the names of the Canadians we've lost this year.

@Kristynwongtam: Thank you @TorontoPflag and @CheriDiNovo for joining and supporting the Trans Day of Remembrance Flag Raising at Queen's Park. Your message of parents protecting Trans kids with love and support is more important than every #ONpoli #TDOR… https://twitter.com/kristynwongtam/status/1726807128080367780/video/1
A toast.
Here’s to trans and enby people, past, present, and future. To what has come before, to now, and to what is to come.
To the sisters and brothers in waiting, trying to see through the egg shell, and for the nest we provide for them when they hatch.
To those long gone, to those taken from us too soon… especially to those vanished and forgotten… we see your high-heeled footsteps left in the earth, and we follow on your path.
And to the now, to those gathered here, in this place and this epoch.
Here’s to all of us.
:QueerCatHeart_Trans:
My usual points of time reminders (aka trusting social media to tell me if it's an important day I give a fuck about) only Just worked today for Trans Day of Rememberance. #TDoR
Anyway, we as a community and a society are poorer for the trans sibs we've lost, both recently and over the years. May their memories be blessings.🕯
the altar, now with moar offerings. I also offer for all of you here, the first page of the Spellbook. I have never been so happy with detect text from picture! Yes, the entire text is in the caption.
Heartbreaking to hear the list of names of those lost this year. I attended a small vigil and march in my neighborhood. 🏳️⚧️

Ask yourself if what really makes you angry about that trans woman you dislike is that she doesn't show you or others like you the deference you think you're entitled to from her, doesn't act grateful enough to you for your "tolerance", doesn't know her place. #tdor #tdor2023 #transdayofremembrance #transdayofremembrance2023
Tell your friends you care about them. You don’t know when you won’t be able to any more 😢
Extra remembering the times I’ve nearly joined them today. It’s hard. 😭.
the “altar” is a short metal shelf, one of the best $2 I ever spent at the thrift store. It’s most often used for altar actions where I have an uncontained pillar candle, which I let it burn on this edged shelf, and it contains all the wax and scrapes clean to do it all over again next candle ritual.
I have added a vase of flowers, in a mason jar with a special vase topper. I added water in a green iron cup with a matching leaf-shaped saucer.
Big hugs to all my folks today. This day can be shitty but we're not alone and we will win. :heart_trans: :heart_trans: :heart_trans: :heart_trans: :heart_trans:

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we commemorate and honor our transgender and non-binary siblings who lost their lives to anti-trans violence.
Let us continue to advocate for those who are no longer present as well as those who are. The time to show solidarity is now. On this day, and every day, we stand with you.

#TDOR #trans #remembrance #Amsterdam As the organiser of the first years of TDOR in Amsterdam, NL I have a special position and feel the responsibility to organise if no one does (has happened, not any more).
Today's edition was beautiful. Packed room but with ally from the SHRH community speaking and telling to advocate for us with government. We share ofc a wider agenda. Also speaking a sex work and hiv advocate, community trans health directors.
We laid flowers and lit 320 candles at the (first global) Homo Monument
🏳️⚧️ On #TDOR we mourn the loss of at least 320 trans people murdered in 2023
💚 Amidst rising tides of transphobia, we have a responsibility to be clear in our support for trans and non-binary people
✊ Today and every day, we stand in solidarity, and fight always for liberation
Today, November 20th, is the Transgender Day of Remembrance, where the victims of transphobia are remembered.
“When kids can’t feel safe, seen, or valued, they don’t come to school.”
We owe it to this generation of #trans and #queer young folks. We must work harder to ensure they have the rights they deserve.

Hoy es el Día Internacional de la Memoria Trans, dedicado a recordar a aquellas personas transexuales, transgénero y de género no binario que han perdido la vida a causa de la transfobia, la discriminación y la violencia en la sociedad. Hoy especialmente recordamos en México al magistrade Ociel Baena, quién en vida luchó en contra del prejuicio y odio de nuestra sociedad heteronormada hacia toda la comunidad LGBT+. #tdor

Seen on a telephone pole by the co-op. Signs like this are part of what made me feel at home in this neighborhood. #tdor
I never know what to say for #transgenderdayofremembrance
I hate that we have to have a specific day because so many people hate us so much for such bullshit reasons.
I hate how utterly apathetic cis people are to the physical, systemic, and political violence we face every day.
I hate how much everyone i know is hurting today.
I hate being afraid.
I hate having to do the terrible algebra of survival every time I go to open my mouth in public.
But I love being me.
I love who I am and who I'm still becoming.
And I hate that so many of my siblings will never get the chance to feel that love and joy.

hey cis people
this Trans Day Of Remembrance
let's take a moment to remember those of us who this cruel world so unfairly took
but also...
let's endeavor to create a better, safer, kinder world for trans people (and everyone else!)
remembrance means nothing without a commitment to stopping the cycle that led us here to begin with
today shouldn't be one huge bummer
it should be a day where the fire in your heart to fight for change burns stronger
Today is the #TransDayOfRemembrance, a day to remember #transgender and #nonbinary folks lost to #transphobic violence. I was hoping to attend a rally and march in #SanFrancisco this evening (http://tdorsf.org/), but I have a nasty cold. 😠
