On February 15, we lost another member of the transgender community. 15-year-old Zander Mahaffey experienced extreme emotional abuse from his mother and was ra.ped at a young age. Sadly, his story has not blown up as much as Leelah's has. You can read his sui.cide note on his tumblr blog ( @hipopatmus) and visit the memorial blog his friends put up ( @ripzander) please, please, please share his story. Tell people about him. Don't let him die in silence.
Rest in power, Space Prince.
