According to the National Black Trans Advocacy Coalition, 67% of Black trans people have experienced police violence. 🚨 To keep Black trans and gender nonconforming communities safe, we must abolish the police and invest in real community care. #AbolishThePolice #BlackTransLivesMatter

Remembering Rekiya Boyd today and always. 🕊️ Rest in power. Rekiya Boyd's life was taken at only 22 years old by an off-duty police officer. The harm caused by police violence in our communities affects us to this day.

On February 4th, Memphis police violently arrested community members who were documenting their response to an assault on a Black woman. Police pepper-sprayed the crowd, attacked a disabled organizer, and used draconian charges to silence cop watchers, including our Executive Director.
