A Kentucky state senator says her transgender son, a trans rights advocate on whom “a lack of acceptance took a toll,” has died by suicide

that bars transgender girls and women from participating in school sports matching their gender identity from sixth grade through college.

“On a daily basis at his job Henry would be aware of the hateful and vile anti-trans messaging being circulated around this country and focused at his workplace,” Berg said in a news release. “This hate building across the country weighed on him. In one of our last conversations he wondered if he was safe walking down the street.”

Berg said her son spent his life “working to extend grace, compassion and understanding to everyone.” She said the “vitriol against trans people" has ”real-world implications for how transgender people view their place in the world and how they are treated as they just try to live their lives." “If I have one ask, it would be this: practice tolerance and grace,” Berg said. “Work on loving your neighbor.”Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.
