Iyanna Dior spoke out to her supporters on Wednesday following her brutal assault, activating all of us to really define and recall what Black Lives Matters means.

Dior, a Black trans woman from Minnesota, was targeted and physically beaten by about 30 group of cis-gendered Black men in a video captured by witnesses on June 1.

Her assault was horrifically watched by what appears to be a group of mainly cis-gendered Black men and women who did nothing to help intervene.

Many Black trans men and women are unable to make a comfortable living due to systemic oppression, coupled with a pandemic that is still toppling Black communities.

We hope you continue to heal Dior and we will use our platforms to amplify more Black trans women displaying your full humanity, not just in times of violence or oppression.
