Gathered in the wake of the murder of Taja De Jesus, a beloved member of SF’s trans* community, TAJA’s Coalition wants you!

Trans* Activists for Justice and Accountability Coalition (TAJA’s Coalition) is calling on you to join us in demanding:

• that cisgender people end violence against trans* communities
• no new jail in San Francisco, with funds being routed instead to much needed trans* community programs
• safe, affordable, and accessible housing for trans people

All trans people are invited to PLEASE WEAR RED for visibility and solidarity! (Thank you for your patience as this piece has evolved, we’re gonna keep the invite for ALL trans people to wear red)

WHITE AND CISGENDER ALLIES, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES FOR ATTENDING ‪#‎TRANSLIBERATIONTUESDAY‬:

– We want this rally to be a safe, peaceful event. While we cannot make guarantees re: police behavior, we intend for this to be a non-violent protest. Please refrain from property destruction during this event. Be especially mindful that trans women of color are more vulnerable to police harassment, abuse, and arrest than you and your actions may put them at risk.

— This event has been organized by and for trans women of color, who have issued a call for white and cisgender allies to TURN UP and work within their communities to put an end to transphobic violence. Please arrive ready to actively support this struggle while also following trans women of color leadership.

— While we embrace coalition building, please do not co-opt or alter hashtags or chants that belong to ‪#‎blacklivesmatter‬. The hashtags for this Day of Action are: #TransLiberationTuesday ‪#‎TurnUp4TAJA‬‪#‎TurnUp4TransPeople‬

— This event is designed to focus exclusively on the violence being targeted at trans women of color in our communities. While we understand there are many important, critical social justice issues that require attention, we ask that you please refrain from bringing any other issues to this action.

— The Die In is for trans women of color ONLY. White and cisgender allies, please stand, sit, or kneel on the periphery of this action in solidarity and support. While we understand that many communities face violence, the current epidemic of violence against trans women of color demands that we bring this issue to the front of the struggle.

— Please SPREAD THE WORD! Violence against trans women of color is a cisgender problem, and cisgender people need to show up and be a visible part of doing this work. Invite your friends and share these guidelines with them.

People seeking to be allies to Trans Women of Color and our liberation are invited and encouraged to self-organize and peacefully insist on no business as usual throughout the rest of Tuesday late afternoon and evening.

MARTES DE LIBERACIÒN TRANS*
MARTES, 10 DE FEBRERO

En la conmemoración del asesinato de Taja De Jesus, querida miembra de la comunidad Trans de San Francisco, la coalición TAJA te necesita a TI!

TAJA “Trans Activists for Justice and Accountability Coalition” (coalición TAJA) te está llamando para que te unas a nosotrxs a demandar:

• Que las personas cis-genero (personas que no son trans) paren la violencia en contra la comunidad Trans
• Digamos “No” a la nueva cárcel en San Francisco, y que eso fondos sean dirigidos a programas necesarios para la comunidad Trans
• Vivienda segura y accesible para personas Trans

Invitamos a las personas Trans que POR FAVOR SE VISTAN DE ROJO para solidaridad y visibilidad.

Habra mas información pronto pero el “Die In” se va a centrar en la experiencia y liderazgo de las Mujers Trans de Color. Aliados a Mujeres Trans de Color les pedimos que guarden el espacio, les pedimos su presencia, pero no participen en el “Die In.”

Personas y aliados a Mujeres Trans de Color les pedimos que se organicen pacíficamente y demanden un pare al negocio/s como siempre por la tarde y noche del martes.
