Brianna Ghey

Another trans person has been murdered this year. It’s only February. 

Her name was Brianna Ghey. She was only 16. 

She was brutally stabbed to death by two teenagers as she was walking through a public park as she was going home from her school in england. 

I didn’t know anything about miss brianna before I heard the tragic news of her death. But from the pictures and tiktok clips I’ve seen of her, she always looked happy. She was several months into her transition, she was a child. My age. She had decades of a good life ahead of her, and she was killed by her peers, just because she was trans. 

This is why I was afraid to walk home last year. People think this is okay. We don’t know how else to ask. Look at what is happening. Help. Please. Brianna probably didn’t want to be a martyr at 16. We don’t want to be a name on a list at the end of the year, a number.

Say her name. Rest in peace Brianna Ghey.
