And now that November has come to a close, five more names have been tragically taken and etched into our collective consciousness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Saturday Nov. 19, on the eve of the Transgender Day of Remembrance, Raymond Green Vance, Kelly Loving, Ashley Paugh, Derrick Rump, and Daniel Aston were all killed by the white 22-year-old homophobic grandson of a far-right Southern California lawmaker. Armed with a military-style assault rifle, Anderson Lee Aldrich (who was known as Nicholas Brink until he changed his name in 2016) entered the LGBTQI+ safe haven that was Club Q in Colorado Springs, and began his murderous rampage, killing the five people mentioned above and injuring <a href=\"https:\/\/gazette.com\/news\/crime\/shooting-at-club-q-in-colorado-springs-leaves-5-dead-25-injured-patrons-hailed-as\/article_d610e12c-68c2-11ed-91f6-df75b85cf2cd.html\">25<\/a> more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There would have undoubtedly been more casualties had it not been for the actions of at least three people \u2014 one being a trans woman who has yet to be identified, and the others being a straight Latino father and military veteran Richard Fierro, and Navy petty officer Thomas James&nbsp; \u2014 who disarmed and pummeled Aldrich until authorities arrived on scene. And while we\u2019re on the topic of law enforcement, it\u2019s important to note that police didn\u2019t stop the shooter, but instead once on scene tackled Fierro and detained him for more than an hour believing that he was the shooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We could\u2019ve all predicted the talking points that preceded yet another targeted, hateful act of violence. The narratives that follow hate crimes such as this one usually suggest that the assailant is \u201cmentally ill\u201d or a \u201clone wolf\u201d or that gun control laws or \u201cprayers in school\u201d would\u2019ve prevented such a tragedy. These tropes are dangerous, as they intentionally and blatantly erase the rise of hate-based movements \u2014 particularly against LGBTQI+ communities and trans individuals in recent times \u2014 whose sole purpose is to inspire direct acts of violence towards communities that have resisted hate and violence for generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But one talking point was particularly callous and infuriating, yet unsurprising given the mainstream rise of transphobia over the last few years. Just three days after the shooting in Colorado Springs, Fox News\u2019 ultra right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson hosted Jaimee Michell, the lesbian founder of the anti-trans hate group, Gays Against Groomers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In typical TERFy (trans-exclusionary radical feminist) fashion, Michell blamed the shooting on the \u201cevil agenda\u201d of gender-affirming healthcare. While sickening, Michell\u2019s words are hardly surprising given that the far-right in this country has made targeting and criminalizing trans people and youth their rallying cry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this targeted vitriol hasn\u2019t just been limited to the toxic trolling cesspool that is social media. According to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/11\/28\/1138396067\/transgender-youth-bills-trans-sports\">NPR analysis<\/a>, 306 bills targeting trans people have been introduced over the last two years, with 86 percent of them focusing on trans youth. And while about 15 percent have become law, parents in states such as Texas have had to uproot their entire lives for fear of being criminalized for providing health care to their transgender children.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Republicans \u2014 notably Texas, Florida and Tennessee governors Gregg Abbot, Ron DeSantis and Bill Lee \u2014 have led the legislative charge in criminalizing trans kids for merely existing, all under the guise of claiming to \u201cprotect children.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Really?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If these lawmakers and organizers were truly interested in the well-being of children, why not pass universal healthcare with access to mental health services? If they were truly \u201cagainst groomers,\u201d why not prohibit children from attending church? Are pastors, musicians, and U.S. Presidents who prey on and sexually exploit children, not groomers?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Somehow for some, that label has been exclusively attached to queer people. And that label has now led to the death of five innocent lives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if we\u2019re not careful, more violence will ensue. While we argue over rainbow armbands in Qatar, let us not forget the transphobia that exists in the supposed bastion that is the Bay Area where we\u2019ve seen drag storybook readings shutdown by fascist Proud Boys and murals in the Mission literally set on fire for the daring display of Latino queer love.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This failing settler colonial project that we now find ourselves in was built upon many things, including but not limited to the erasure of our queer relatives. But our folks are still here. We have always been here. And in the face of violent extremism, we remain. The extremism that wishes to continue that erasure cannot be defeated with debate or logic. But only through physical resistance. May all of us who have heart, regardless of language, culture, gender, binary, or pronouns, contribute to and reinforce that resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>untitled prayer, 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bless Queer and Trans rebels of colour treading like unapologetic tornadoes raging across this bloodthirsty simulated post-apocalyptic police state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bless disabled and undocumented kin treading like comets through cosmic highways and who expose pathways to our liberation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bless our sick, elderly, and neglected kin treading hard through callous battlefields and who emerge like flowers blooming through cracks in the concrete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bless future generations who will inherit the trauma inflicted by hateful, immoral, and cowardly bigots but who will tread victoriously to create vibrant worlds that will be the result of centuries of ancestral dreaming and resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bless our communities, protect us from harm, and celebrate our joy as we restore harmony among the stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<cite>\u2014 Demian Din\u00e9Yazhi\u00b4\/@heterogeneoushomosexual<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Illustration by Jen White Johnson] The saying is \u2018things get better.\u2019 But it doesn\u2019t always feel like it.&nbsp; And certainly not right now.
