“Sadly, 2020 has already seen at least 41 transgender or gender non-conforming people fatally shot or killed by other violent means, the majority of which were Black and Latinx transgender women. We say at least because too often these stories go unreported -- or misreported.”

“With [at least 41] known deaths this year, HRC has officially recorded more violent deaths of transgender and gender non-conforming people than any year since we began tracking this violence in 2013.
Previously, the highest known number of fatal deaths of transgender and gender non-conforming people was in 2017, when we reported 31 people violently killed. Since January 2013, HRC has documented more than 200 transgender and gender non-conforming people who were victims of fatal violence. The release of this report comes one day ahead of Transgender Day of Remembrance, a time to remember the transgender and gender non-conforming people who have been lost to fatal violence over the course of the previous year.”
