Tara Sawyer

Tara is a goof who thinks loving everything is possible. She currently
serves on the boards of three organizations: Desiree Alliance, Sex
Workers Outreach Project and The Diversity Center. When not
volunteering, her gendered differently self is trying to get in more
beach time, talking about butterflies or trying desperately to make
sense of, and love this big wide world. Her favorite snack is raw
almonds these days.

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance

I'm a transgendered sex worker, and I want to not get killed for who I am or what I do. As our death count rises, I beg that you consider your prejudices around gender, and let us live in peace. I'm literally begging for my life.
