To All,
As November 20th, the Transgender Day of Rememberance, approaches, I am asking everyone to remember the latest victim of the hate and intolerance that exists in our society.
Moses "Teish" Cannon, a 20 year old transgendered african-american youth, was ruthlessly gunned down Friday, November 15th, in which court papers reveal the fact that the victim was transgendered and openly gay appears to be the sole motive for the crime. The full story can be seen on WSTM.com (channel 3, Syracuse NY) titled "Murder on Seymour Street".
Transgendered support groups in the Central New York area are asking prosecutors to label this murder as a hate crime, and well it should be labelled as such.
I will try to provide more information as it becomes available.
