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. 

Manifesto for legal abortion: trans women know about secrecy

We, transvestites and trans people, know very well what it means to decide about our own bodies. We did so for many years in secret, and that cost us (and still costs us) nothing less than our lives. That's why trans women are fighting for legal abortion, and we are in the streets, and we will be at the vigil in front of Congress for the vote in the Chamber of Deputies on June 13th. And that's why we also hope to see everyone on June 28th at 6 PM in Plaza de Maya for the National March against transvesticide and transfemicide.
