Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR), also known as the International Transgender Day of Remembrance, on November 20th is a day to memorialise those who have been murdered as a result of transphobia. This episode is a heavy one where Sean, Sev and Ez are in studio together. Every year the Transgender Murder Monitor releases their count the number of trans, non-binary and gender diverse people who’ve been lost to violence in the last year. Counted from the 1st of October 2023 til the 30th of September 2024, the demographics wont surprise you. Overwhelmingly they’re people of colour. Overwhelmingly they are transfeminine. Staggering numbers of them are sex workers, migrants or refugees. This year 350 trans and gender diverse people were murdered. To read the full list click here.
