Norfolk transgender resource center vandalized
The Norfolk Police Department is investigating the vandalism of a transgender resource center’s building. Tarena Williams, founder of the Southeastern Transgender Resource Center, told WAVY that someone spraypainted anti-trans graffiti on the windows of her organization’s offices on Sunday or Monday morning.
Williams told the Hampton Roads television station that seeing the messages was like “walking into hell.” “I opened up STRC, even the Lamina House,” she told WAVY. “I opened up that to get away from those types of words.
This is a place you can come to get away from that, but to see that sprayed over the window. It’s kind of like you are walking into hell. … To be honest, I was like in shock.” Authorities are investigating the vandalism.
