@lavernecox : Reposted from @theuwcofficial -  For Immediate Release Contact: C. Chela Demuir, President/UWC (650) 336-8471 @theuwcofficial @ChelaDemuir WHO: Collaborating Organizations: Unique Woman's Coalition, FLUX, TransLatin@ Coalition, Gender Justice LA and Community Stakeholders WHAT: We are just past half the month and we have lost 3 trans people to hate motivated violence. In the U.S. there is an average of 2 hate motivated murders per month of Tran identified people. Black Trans women continue to lead the list in this escalating crisis an accounted for 19 of the 25 murders in 2018. This is special poignant in month of May, this month we celebrate Mothers, but three Mothers mourn their babies. 1) Michelle Simone, of Washington DC, was shot and later died at the hospital 2) Clair Legato, of Cleveland Ohio, was shot and later died of her wounds at the hospital 3) Muhlaysia Booker, Of Washington DC, was found dead on arrival in the streets of Dallas. The latter, Muhlaysia Booker, had made headlines after being beaten by a mob in Dallas in the month of April, many attribute retaliation as the motive for her murder early in the hours of Sunday. Muhlaysia had the courage to speak up against her attackers and even addressed the issue of violence against trans communities in a press conference in April. WHERE: Los Angeles CA City Hall WHEN:Friday May 24th at 6pm WHY:It is time that we begin to take action regarding the murders of Tran Black Women. Many times we post or talk about it but have not yet created a coordinated effort to make sure that there is a actionable step, a moment that can change the narrative. #instapic #theuwcofficial #Picoftheday #Lgbtq #Flux_ahf #GirlsLikeUs #BlackCEO #TransLatinaCoalition #GenderJusticeLA  #valuetranslife #transpower #Protecttranspeople  #Valuetranspeople  #TUSC #whywemarch #GirlsLikeUsRock #uniquewomanscoalition #BlacklivesMatter #BlackExcellence #Pioneer #transisbeautiful #transgender #transrights #existLoudly #BlackTransLive
