If Stonewall was the shared birthplace, the AIDS crisis was the shared graveyard. During the 1980s and 90s, as gay men were dying in record numbers, transgender communities—particularly trans women of color—were also ravaged by the epidemic, often at even higher rates of mortality. Yet, they were largely erased from the early media narratives of the "Gay Plague."

The Human Rights Campaign has consistently tracked a horrifying trend: year after year, the majority of anti-LGBTQ homicide victims are transgender women of color. These murders are often misreported, deadnamed (using a victim's former name), or ignored by mainstream media. This creates a culture of mourning within the trans community that is distinct from the broader gay culture.

Originating in Harlem during the late 20th century, the Ballroom subculture was created by Black and Latino transgender and queer youth as a safe haven from racism and transphobia. This underground culture birthed "voguish" dance styles, unique runway categories, and linguistic terms—such as "spilling tea," "throwing shade," and "work"—that are now staples of everyday global vernacular.
