#trans death

Hey y’all, I was asked to share this fundraiser for Sam Nordquist’s family as they continue to deal with legal costs surrounding his murder.

If you’re in Minnesota, come to Seward Cafe on December 4th. If you can’t make it, you can still help out by sharing this or giving to them.

Sam Nordquist was a Black trans man who was tortured for three months by multiple whites before being lynched in February 2025. His family is still handling the case against his assailants and are having to deal with travel and legal costs.

Here is a link to the mealtrain.

I didn’t see posts about this on here so I wanted to share this deeply sad news. I didn’t know Apollo, but in the article you can hear from some of those who did and I recommend that you take the time to read some of them and learn a little bit about who this man was to those who loved him.

I’ll end this with a post of his own:

"this is proof of-" that is someone's son

"well see this is why I hate this argument-" you are standing on a woman's corpse to have this conversation

"everyone should be talking about this" are we talking about the actual victim, or are they another puppet for your discourse that you'll throw away when they're not popular to talk about anymore?

Juniper Blessing, Murray Foust and Luca Redbeard Knapp were people BEFORE AND AFTER their transness. Their deaths are not mouthpieces. Respect and honor the lives of our fallen and leave your internet drama out of their memorials for fucks sake.

Brianna Ghey, a 16 year old trans girl was murdered by 2 teens, one year ago today. There was a vigil in her hometown where her school headteacher, friends and family spoke and told stories. The turn out was hearwarming, so many people came and placed paintings, lit candles, gave flowers, balloons and wore pink (her favourite colour) in her memory.

Her mother, Esther sent up a go fund me for mindfulness in schools project called Peace in Mind as a legacy for her daughter which has raised £76,102 of their £50,000 target.

Just days prior to this though, Prime minister, Rishi Sunak made derogatory, transphobic remarks with Esther being moments away. He has since refused to apologise, to her mother or father, he has ignored the question multiple times. Thankfully Esther did not have to hear those remarks herself.

Here's a link to the gofundme, donate if you want or can.

Rest in peace Brianna.
