Keep in mind that trans people are rarely recorded as trans people by authorities when they’re victims. In several incidents this year we’ve only found out that the victim was trans (and not a cis person of their birth sex) from their friends, the official reports had nothing.

"However, the homicide rates of young transfeminine Black and Latina residents were almost certainly higher than were those of cisfeminine comparators'
Seems like an important point not to leave out.

Yeah that's true!
I wonder if this is due to lower acceptance of transgenderism in the black community?
