2025 was not an easy year. A year when our communities—Black and Brown Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two Spirit, Trans, and Gender Non-Conforming people—were asked yet again to survive systems that were never built for us.
And still, we showed up.

The Audre Lorde Project sends condolences to the family and friends of Sam Nordquist. Sam, a 24-year-old Black Trans Man from Minnesota, was tortured and killed in upstate NY. Sam and all the lives of our TGNC people are sacred. All of the Trans People of Color that we’ve lost to violence across New York deserve justice and to have their lives honored through radical, concrete change.
With our housing in the LGBTSTGNC community being so unstable - we are offering this list of resources that can provide you with knowledge and information about how to protect yourself in a housing crisis.
