CW: trans violence, murder.

No periods for space becasuse the day is about being


seen.

Today is the #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance, when he remember all of our brethren,


sistren, bothren, othren, and neithren who have been killed in anti-trans #gbv
#GenderBasedViolence #hatecrimes #hatemurders. It's a day when we count and speak
aloud the names of those whose murder weapons were wielded by another's hands;
there is another anti-trans murder spree that is not the focus today, in which the
society which hates us uses our own hands to murder us (to be clear: I mean the
offensively high suicide rates among trans folk).

As you can see, this is a day I feel really intensely. I first attended a #TDoR
event in 2002 or so, and there were a tenth of the names read that day than will be
read today (and are listed below). In all of those years, the vast majority of
those names have been people of color, and have been transwomen or transfeminine
folk. In particular, the names are mostly those of Black transwomen, which is a
large part of why the average life expectancy for a Black transwoman in this
country is 35 years of age.

I will be spending most of the day with my beloved Sumiko Saulson, as I did last
year. We missed the reading of the names, or the remembrance we attended didn't
include them for some reason. This year, we are planning to read the names on a
series of TikTok videos, attend this #UnitarianUniversalist remembrance
https://www.facebook.com/events/3499284013523083/ , and (because we need something
happy making) buy ourselves a Christmas tree to celebrate our growing closer and
closer together. What are you going to do to remember the #BlessedDead?

Here's the list of the names. I think I'll keep my keening prayers to myself for
now. PLEASE share or copypasta at least the names that follow, so these siblings
of ours do not go unnoticed into that gentle night.
