The protest was led by Black trans women and was co-organized by a number of groups, including the Marsha P. Johnson Institute and the Okra Project. The rally came on the heels of a week where two Black trans women had died. Dominique ‘Rem’Mie’ Fells, 27, was found dead in a river in SW Philly on June 8. A day later, Riah Milton, 25, was shot in Ohio. Authorities are investigating both deaths as homicides.
