Transgender Day of Remembrance

Original Link: https://wildhunt.org/2022/11/transgender-day-of-remembrance-2022.html

Today’s story, which commemorates the Transgender Day of Remembrance, includes descriptions of violence and bigotry against transgender people. The Wild Hunt believes it is important to our mission to acknowledge, report on, and remember the victims of this violence, given the importance of transgender people to the Pagan movement, but reader discretion is advised.

TWH – Late last night, an assailant opened fire at a queer nightclub in Colorodo Springs, Colorado, killing at least five and wounding at least 18 others. The victims and survivors of the attack at Club Q were hosting a “Drag Divas” show and preparing to commemorate today’s Transgender Day of Remembrance.

The suspect is in custody and being treated for injuries, according to Colorado Springs Lieutenant Pamela Castro.

“Club Q is a safe haven for our LGBTQ citizens,” Colorado Springs Police Chief Adrian Vasquez said in a press conference Sunday morning. “I’m so terribly saddened and heartbroken.”

“Club Q is devastated by the senseless attack on our community,” the club’s owners said in a Facebook post. “Our prayers and thoughts are with all the victims and their families and friends. We thank the quick reactions of heroic customers that subdued the gunman and ended this hate attack.”

The attack at Club Q is only the latest attack on the queer community this year. “You can draw a straight line,” said Sarah Kate Ellis, the president and CEO of GLAAD, “from the false and vile rhetoric about LGBTQ people spread by extremists and amplified across social media, to the nearly 300 anti-LGBTQ bills introduced this year, to the dozens of attacks on our community like this one.

“That this mass shooting took place on the eve of Transgender Day of Remembrance,” Ellis continued, “when we honor the memory of the trans people killed the prior year, deepens the trauma and tragedy for all in the LGBTQ community.”

The Club Q shooting is a developing story. TWH will follow the story as more information becomes available.

Last month on October 1, 2022, Tiffany Banks was killed in Miami. Details about her murder were slow to emerge because local media deadnamed her. The funeral home wrote her parents “gave birth to a beautiful young man,” and continued to misgender Tiffany throughout her obituary.

Equality Florida wrote in a Facebook post:

The week before Tiffany’s murder, Semaj Billingslea was shot multiple times in Jacksonville, Florida. Police found him outside a Baymont Inn and Suites motel. He was taken to a hospital, where he succumbed to his wounds. Police initially reported that a woman had been shot in front of the motel and then reported that a woman had been killed. Media continued to misgender him. Semaj’s killer has not been identified.

Tiffany’s accused assailant has been arrested, but law enforcement is asking anyone with information on Semaj’s murder to please contact Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office or First Coast Crime Stoppers at 1-866-845-TIPS (8477).

Tiffany is at least the 33rd transgender person and Semaj was the 32nd transgender reported as a victim of fatal violence in 2022. He is the third and she is the fourth such victim in Florida that we know of.

I write “we know of,” because, like Tiffany and Semaj, many trans people are misgendered and deadnamed by the living, depriving them of their identities along with their lives. As a result, often violence against trans people is hidden from view.

Their deaths also mean that, statistically, trans neighborhoods experience a murder every 8.3 days in the United States.

To date in the United States, the known victims in these neighborhoods include 20 Black trans women, three Latinx trans women, two Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander trans women, one Native/Indigenous person, two white trans women, one Black trans man, and three white trans men.

Eleven victims were under 25 years old; the youngest known was 17.

The Transrespect versus Transphobia Worldwide (TvT) research project for Trans Murder Monitoring reported this year that there were at least 327 reported murders of trans and gender-diverse people between 1 October 2021 and 30 September 2022. With 222 cases, Latin America and the Caribbean remains the region that reported most of the murders, though as the project notes, this is due to established monitoring systems in those countries; the number of cases is likely severely underreported elsewhere.

TMM 2022 data shows that:

• 327 trans and gender-diverse people were reported murdered;

• 95% of those murdered globally were trans women or trans feminine people;

• Half of murdered trans people whose occupation is known were sex workers;

• Of the cases with data on race and ethnicity, racialised trans people make up 65% of the reported murders;

• 36% of the trans people reported murdered in Europe were migrants;

• 68% of all the murders registered happened in Latin America and the Caribbean, with 29% of the total happening in Brazil;

• 35% of the murders took place on the street and 27% in their own residence;

• Most of the victims who were murdered were between 31 and 40 years old.

This was the first year that murder cases were reported from Switzerland and Estonia.

The TvT wrote that “The victims were migrant Black trans women – Sabrina Houston from Jamaica and Cristina Blackstar from Brazil. They were both stabbed to death in their own residences.”

Since the project began collecting data in 1999, there have been 4,369 murders of transgender people worldwide.

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) is an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of transgender and gender-diverse people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence.

Today we honor the memory of those who perished because they led authentic lives. We take today to reflect on the powerful, magical resilience of the trans community.

We say the names of those we lost in the last year for their peace, for their justice and to end the violence against them.
