In addition to the victims listed previously, 60 other transgender people are known to have been

murdered around the world in the past year. Their names, chosen or

otherwise, are not known to us. Frequently, the precise date and manner of their death also went undiscovered or unreported. Of these, 28 died in Brazil and 24 elsewhere in Latin America.

We Remember and Honor You.

We fight the injustice for you now.
