Show up outside Baltimore City Hall for Trans Day of Visibility. Baltimore Safe Haven is organizing a rally outside Baltimore City Hall on Wednesday, March 31, at 3 p.m. in honor of International Day of Trans Visibility. Kim Wirtz* and our trans siblings who are incarcerated deserve visibility. Join us to raise awareness of the disproportionate criminalization, incarceration, and victimization that the trans community experiences.
*Kim Wirtz, a Black trans woman living in Baltimore City, was arrested and detained in a male cell of Baltimore Central Booking, a state-run facility under the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services. Within a few days, she was found unresponsive just after midnight on February 25, and later pronounced dead at Mercy hospital. More information on this tragedy can be found here.
