In this episode, we honor the lives of transgender women of color lost to violence, including Mesha Caldwell, Jasmine Mack, Iris Santos, and Tatiana Labelle. Through their stories, we confront the epidemic of anti-trans violence in the U.S., where discrimination, systemic neglect, and hate continue to claim lives.
