Happy Intersex Day of Solidarity/Remembrance ~ Nov 8th

I don't really have anything prepared to post today, so I'll just send some attention on InterAct's Post:

Also Trans Day of Remembrance was Wednesday the 20th.
Wanted to highlight a great post by a friend for it even if a little late.

The Intersex Trailblazers Who Inspired Me

On Intersex Day of Remembrance, Marissa Adams reflects on the trailblazers who inspired her to become the intersex advocate she is today.

Now that #TDoR is behind us I've pushed all of the #TDoR2024 data I have to the tdor-data archive repo on GitHub:

https://github.com/annajayne/tdor-data

As a result, there is now a freely available CSV archive of the full dataset (both the TGEU reported cases and others) which can be downloaded or forked.

I still have lots to do (e.g. I have a significant amount of data on unpublished #TDoR2025 cases for October/November already), but for the time being I'm taking a breath for my own mental wellbeing.

GitHub - annajayne/tdor-data: Data on trans people lost to violence, suicide etc. for the https://tdor.translivesmatter.info site. See the tdor-site repo for the associated source.

On #TransDayofRemembrance, we gather to mourn the #Trans, non-binary and 2-Spirit folks we have lost and celebrate those who are here with us. I will never stop pushing for a future when everyone is free to be their truest self. #ONpoli #TorCen #TDOR #TDOR2024

This #TDoR, I am thinking of the 350 trans people who lost their lives to senseless violence in the past year. Each murder, each death of a trans person before their time is a tragedy. Every trans person deserves to live free from violence and free from discrimination and exclusion. Mourn the dead, and fight like hell for the living.

Trans Day of Remembrance 2024 Joint Statement: We honour the lives of our siblings and demand safety amidst growing hate and anti-rights movements  - TGEU - Trans Europe and Central Asia

Each year, on 20 November, trans and gender diverse people (together “trans”) gather as a community to mourn and remember our lost siblings on Trans Day of Remembrance (TDoR). 

TGEU - Transgender Europe

“Born in Argentina before the Perón dictatorship descended for the second time, the politics of her home country colored much of Ms. Gentili's life, and her legacy as an activist. First coming out in 1984, Ms. Gentili received asylum in the United States in 2012, where she fought for the rights of undocumented immigrants, sex workers, and LGBTQIA+ people.”

“In the 50 years since she died of lymphoma while still in her twenties, Darling's star has continued to ascend. More than a muse of the gritty-yet-glamorous New York avant-garde art scene of the 1970s, she's now hailed as a trailblazing transgender actress who lived — and died — before her time.”

“Marsha P. Johnson was assigned male at birth and born on August 24th, 1945 in Elizabeth, New Jersey — and in 1945, no one could have imagined the profound effect she would have on the LGBTQ+ community as a trans and gay rights activist. Not only did she help lead the Stonewall Uprising of 1969, but she became a leader of the movement.”

“’Now is the time to remember our loved ones whose lives were taken," said Noah Glick, a Trans Health Program Youth and Family Coordinator at Fenway Health. "Those who didn't make it. And those who were killed for merely existing. They left us with their wisdom, their courage and their bravery and we owe it to them to use it.’”

'Now is the time to remember our loved ones,' says trans advocate at Hyannis vigil

Trans youth see high suicide rates, said one advocate. But studies show one supportive adult reduces the chances of a suicide by 75%.

Wisst ihr was das Schlimmste am #transdayofremembrance ist?

Das ich mich schuldig fühle.
Schuldig, dass ich überlebt habe und andere gestorben sind.
Schuldig, dass ich es nicht verhindern konnte, dass meine trans Geschwister gestorben sind.
Ich fühle mich schuldig, weil ich denke ich muss mehr machen um irgendwas zu ändern.
