    We are devastated to learn of the passing of . Monica Roberts was a long-time movement leader, elder, & journalist who did groundbreaking work for our communities for decades. She means so much to all of us. This is heartbreaking and beyond words.

    I’m shocked at the sudden loss of ⁦⁩. For trans journalists she was a pioneer and an essential North Star. I know so many of us will be deeply saddened by her passing. ⁦⁩ ⁦⁩

    Monica was a friend. Someone who I looked to for courage...for voice. I’m better for having spent time in her presence on the rare occasions we were able to be in the same room. And I give thanks for her advocacy! I won’t forget her. May she rise in power.

    Monica Roberts () was the first unapologetically trans person I saw at a convention. Her work to tell our stories was vital. Her blog was often the only one to chronicle the Black trans experience with the rigor, fervor and regularity we deserve. This hurts.

    I am gutted by the news of ’s passing. Monica Roberts was a light for everyone involved in the fight for trans justice, a warm spirit with a bawdy sense of humor and merciless intolerance for bullshit. She was an tower amongst us and will be profoundly missed. 💔

    Monica Roberts held us down — the first to defend, to celebrate, to amplify. I would not be where I am without Her — a big sister who told it like it was, who centered Black trans lives, brilliance & history unapologetically. Rest well sis. Thank you.

    Our charge from our newest ancestor Monica Roberts is to uncover the glorious history of Black trans people and document our lives today and beyond. Her lives on.

    In the Court's order declining to hear the case (known as denial of certiorari (or cert)), Justices Thomas and Alito wrote a separate concurrence indicating their desire to overturn Obergefell (marriage equality) altogether. So, what does this mean?
