When will it all end? Probably not in my lifetime. Until it ends, we have the Transgender Day of Remembrance. There are a lot of deaths that have gone unrecorded in the public media. Many people are not recognized as being transgender by local authorities. Some are crossdressers who were clothed as their born sex when they were murdered, and others were transsexuals and had not yet started transition. According to http://www.transrespect-transphobia.org/en_US/tvt-project/tmm-results/tdor2010.htm, there have been 179 killings since the last TDOR. However, only 29 are reported at http://www.transgenderdor.org. Perhaps there wasn't enough information to include the other 150 deaths?
As far as Blogger is concerned, this is a very large entry. There are long pauses as I type, and then all of a sudden, a string of text shoots out. These entries are only going to get larger and larger each year. In order to record those deaths that occurred since my last entry on November 20th, 2009, I went to
The previous deaths were taken from the "wall" at the Remembering Our Dead site at: http://www.rememberingourdead.org/about/core.html
Hopefully you'll never see my name on any of these sites. Many others have not been so lucky. They were killed simply for the act of being themselves. Living their life as who they are inside. They were welcomed with violence and death. I wonder if the human race will ever grow and mature beyond the savages that some of us clearly are.
