A black post with white text that reads: The murder of Jonathan Joss, a queer and Native American voice actor of the Comanche and White Mountain Apache tribes, has frightened and saddened the Queer Vox community. This hate crime is a stark reminder how vulnerable LGBQTIA+ people are. We are so often demonized by the twisted rhetoric in our current politics and media, it feels as if we walk through the world with targets on our backs. Jonathan’s acting work remains not only as a memorial to his talent, but also a testament to the importance of authentic representation. The more the voices of the underrepresented are heard and tied to the very real beating hearts behind them, the more this divided nation will understand and defend us. In that pursuit, we must never be silent. Our hearts go out to Jonathan’s husband Tristan and to all who knew and loved him.
