History

Marsha P. Johnson's death was ruled a suicide after her body was found on July 6, 1992 in the Hudson River, but those who knew her were certain she was murdered; although her case has been reopened, it officially remains unsolved. Many more TLGBQ+ lives have also been lost to violence and bigotry in the U.S., especially among Black trans women, underscoring the need to make the world a safer, more loving, inclusive place and to protect and honor loved ones with action.
