CW: Petition to Investigate the Death of a Transgender Woman
Hi everyone, And here (it/it's). I have started a petition to get the death of a Jean, a transgender woman, investigated, as well as allegations of systemic mistreatment and discrimination against other transgender patients in Massachusetts's DMH hospitals.
This petition represents 1000's of hours of lived trauma by me and other transgender patients in MA and 1000's of hours of hard work by family, friends, and allies behind the scenes. Signing and sharing is doing A LOT!
The link to the petition is:

Please consider Boosting this toot!
*UPDATE* A news report came out in the past week stating that Disability Law Center is alleging that Lemuel Shattuck Hospital, the same hospital that Jean and I were patients in, neglected and older black man TO DEATH.

Let's not wait. The time to act is now before someone else dies!
♥️🙏🏿🧡🙏🏻💛🙏🏽💚🙏🏿💙🙏🏽💜
