Pride in struggle: thousands marched against transvesticide and transfemicide

Fueled by the landmark ruling in the Diana Sacayán transvesticide case and a powerful mobilization, the 3rd National March “Stop Transvesticide and Transfemicide” brought thousands of people out of their homes. Unlike previous demonstrations, where only transvestites and trans people and some members of the LGBTI community participated, this time the “green wave” feminist movement, with its contingent from the Campaign for Legal Abortion, was joined by Nora Cortiñas, a Mother of Plaza de Mayo, and Sergio Maldonado, brother of Santiago Maldonado.
