Today, we commemorate Transgender Day of Remembrance by honoring the victims of transgender violence in 2021. To honor their lives, we address the increasing epidemic of violence against the transgender and gender non-conforming community.
NMAC’s Lauren Miller sits down with Tori Cooper, Director of Community Engagement for the Transgender Justice Initiative at the Human Rights Campaign, and Libra Valentino, founder of Take Me As I Am. Together, we discuss how transgender violence can be conveyed through words, policies, and physical actions, how we can better humanize victims of transgender violence and ensure that people see transgender and nonbinary lives as valuable, the importance of teaching conflict resolution in relationships, and the need for respect of the self and others.
