At around 4:30 AM on Saturday, September 9th, 2017, Teresa Martin got a phone call from her daughter’s friends who had accompanied her to a party. They explained that they had left the party because they couldn’t find her daughter, Kenneka Jenkins, but still had her phone and her car. Teresa immediately made her way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Rosemont, Illinois, near the O’Hare airport, where the party had taken place. She arrived at around 5:30 AM and began searching for Kenneka. After not finding her, she went to hotel management and requested that they begin combing through video surveillance to see if they could find where Kenneka had gone, but they told her they couldn’t grant access to it until Kenneka had been reported missing. At 7:14 AM, when Teresa called to report her daughter missing, she very clearly told the operator taking her call that something was not right because it wasn’t like Kenneka to disappear like this.

We are going to be talking about two trailblazing Black transgender women. Remember, Black queer people are who we have to thank for camp fashion, reading others to filth, and spilling the tea. I do want to preface this episode by saying that I will be using language used by drag queens and trans women from the 1960s to the 1990s, which is different from the politically correct language we use today. The women I’m going to talk about used she/her pronouns and today would be considered transgender or gender nonconforming, but I do plan on using the words they used to identify themselves at the time they were alive.

After the New York Pride Parade in 1992, a body was found floating in the Hudson River. It was determined to be that of 46-year-old Marsha P. Johnson and police quickly ruled it a suicide, despite noting a massive wound to the back of her head.

In 1999, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police received a tip about the operator of a pig farm in Port Coquitlam, about an hour from Vancouver. The person who had called it in claimed that their friend, Lynn Ellingsen, had told them some disturbing things about the proprietor of the farm, Robert Pickton. On August 10th, 1999, police brought Lynn in for questioning, but denied knowing anything about Robert Pickton harming sex workers or other women, besides herself. However, only three years later, in 2002, she would bring them a very different story.

On May 4th, 2003, around 4am, the fire alarms went off in the Poland Hall dorm building at Western Kentucky University, in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The fire department arrived within 5 minutes and the fire was very contained - the sprinklers had put most of it out. The fire department captain entered room 214, and he saw something that stood out amidst the dark and blackened room. It was the unburned section on the arm of 18 year old Katie Autry. She was alive, but she was not doing well. Retired police sergeant, Kevin Picket, says that when he arrived, a firefighter said to him, “If you’re a praying person, now’s the time to pray.”
