Women of Color live at the crossroads of racial and gendered oppression,
with dire consequences. We see this in the alarming rise of violence
against trans Black women, with each year becoming deadlier than the one
prior and 96% of trans folk murdered being trans feminine people. We
also see this in the rise of anti-Asian hate crimes, of which 68% target
Asian women. And, for many women, this violence is felt close to home.
The CDC estimates that 53% of all female victims of homicide were killed
by an intimate partner, and Black women were the most likely to die at
the hands of a partner. Native American women follow with the second
highest incidence rate. Join us

for a conversation among organizers and leaders addressing gendered and
racialized violence in our communities: from the crisis of missing and
murdered Indigenous and Black women, to targeted attacks against Asian
women, to ongoing violence against trans and gender non-conforming
people, to the trafficking of immigrant women. #RaceAnd Femicide

will ground us on the roots of femicide, as well as its present day
manifestations. Participants will also explore steps we can take as a
collective society to find transformative solutions that do not
perpetuate violence and further criminalize people, but rather get to
the root causes of femicide. Join us on April 14th at 3 PM/ET

to learn how the issue is impacting our different communities and how we
can combat it.
