🏳️⚧️💖Next, for my honoring of important elders of our community for the Trans Day of Remembrance is We'wha, a Ihamana, and two-spirit member of the Zuni tribe. There is no consensus on what pronouns are best for We'wha but because native/indigenous folks recognize Ihamana as being distinct from men or women, and fulfilling both roles in their culture I will be using (they/them). We'wha was, perhaps, one of the most famous and influential Ihamana in history. They were a cultural ambassador for Native and indigenous peoples, especially the Zuni. They lived from 1849-1896, during a time when our trans kin had almost no representation, no language to conceptualize our experience, and no safety--and despite this they were sought out and elevated in writing. They learned english and were very knowledgeable; this enabled them to educate Euro-american white individuals and be a valuable contact for many different groups and institutions. They were part of a Zuni delegation to Washington D.C. and even met the president, Grover Cleveland. ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🤎🖤🩶🤍🩷
🏳️⚧️💖⚧️ Thank you, We'wha. You are a paragon of representation and community. Rest in power, dear sibling.💖🏳️⚧️⚧️

In one of her first public actions as the newly elected Uachtarán na hÉireann (president of Ireland) Catherine Connolly has written a public letter of solidarity on Trans Remembrance Day.
It is a very promising start -

⬆️ From Dr. Sandra Duffy Golden on BSky, this is the translation of the Irish language text in Catherine Connolly's message above, so I thought I'd share that too 🏳️⚧️
"I want to send my greatest respect and esteem to the trans community, your families, and friends, and to those gathering this evening for this year's TDOR.
...
We recognise again that for our own part, we need to do our utmost to create a society in which everyone can live free from fear, a society that embraces diversity, and where every life is respected wholly. May their souls rest in peace [lit: may their loyal souls be at God's right hand)."

Molly Skyfire's coming out story could not begin in the constraints of our reality, no, her story takes us from the dream world to the waking one in this fantastical, psychedelic autobiographical story about how she found her gender and herself.

Today we observe the Trans Day of Remembrance, a time to honor the trans and gender diverse people who have been taken from us due to transphobia. While we here at GAYINT headquarters prefer to keep things light, this is a serious issue. To all our trans and gender diverse friends: We see you. You are not alone. Your existence is beautiful and we will never stop fighting for a better world where we all can feel safe.

Today we remember beloved trans friends and families members who lost their lives through needless violence and bigotry. It should never be like this ... #TDOR #TransDayOfRememberance
