We are greatly saddened to learn of the death of Jaheim Pugh, a Black gender non-conforming 19-year-old, in Prichard, Alabama on December 13.

Jaheim is remembered by loved ones as “the life of the party,” “such a bright light,“ and “so loving.” We mourn the loss of such a young life, and will continue to work towards a world where no one has to fear violence or oppression for who they are or how they look.

Rest in peace and power, Jaheim.
