Sen. Elizabeth Warren posts the names of the 18 trans people who have been murdered in the U.S. this year

We can’t allow the names of the transgender people murdered each year to fade into the background. In 2020, there have been a reported 18 trans people killed, and unfortunately, the number is growing daily. Most were Black. Most were women. Most were under 30 years old. Most were killed in the South. Two were killed by police. Five were killed in Puerto Rico. Four were killed during #PrideMonth, and there are initial reports on a potential murder of a Black trans woman on June 30. . We can end this epidemic of violence, but first we have to acknowledge the problem. Trans people, especially Black trans folks, have the solutions, but we need your support in building our power. – @raquel_willis #BlackTransPower. #BlackTransLivesMatter #BlackLivesMatter

One Remark

  1. With all that’s been going on in the news,these murders seem to have been pushed out of the news.
