Vigil for Gwen Araujo 2002 Part 2

In part 2 Ms. Allred continues
her "no doubt " speech, and then Sylvia Guererro, Eddie-Gwen's mom, delivers a beautiful few minutes of grief and hope. Such a brave and sweet woman- it shows- and she must be a great mom. Then a band I don't know if they stuck together but, forgiving the guitar (basic) and a few off notes- a really wonderful song. i have no rights to this- if you are, or know who is singing please inform him this is up and ask him to contact me.- at least give me his name so Ican properly credit- a student, i think of newark Memorial in 2002.

Gwen looks like her mom... What's with the HE?!!!

[RobinofSactown]

Its creepy a little because it was a sad and solemn occasion raining cold and as there was little light some is greenush "nightshots"...thepronuns are because society meaning everyone except trans peeps and their friends call people what they look like to them, which means as i don't pass so well and don't make my voice really high people he and sir me right and left whether in a dress or not- they were speaking of a departed soul- he and she are meaningless when we die. Its tricky. Thanks.

Yeah I don't understand the "HE" they were speaking of. Gwen was she, not he. This is indeed very touching and it breaks my heart to know that she had to suffer for nothing more than being herself. She suffered all her life because of ignorance. What a beautiful human being she was. What a beautiful angel she is.

@CupidsHealingHearts I agree. Don't take away their right to not engage in sex with a man when they are not gay and seemingly thought you were a woman. Trangender or not, He was not a woman and did not have female bodyparts therefore he was a male and man. No matter what he felt mentally.

[CupidsHealingHearts]

Not that Gwen deserved to die, but she was asking for trouble when she withheld the fact that she was transgendered and biologically was a male. That is rape and fraud, and these killers should have controlled themselves and called the police when they found out. She wasn't murdered because she was transgendered, she was murdered because she sleot with a couple of guys who thought she was a woman. No matter what Gwen thought, they deserved the TRUTH...

For anyone who thinks she deserved this FUCK OFF! I CAN'T F'N STAND it when ppl hate other ppl for being different! I hope all the gay bashers and racist ppl BURN IN HELL! NO ONE in this world derserves to to die this way! When did god give them the right to do this to her. Only god can decide when its our time to go.

[stefano74ish]

maybe that's what it takes for some people to realize that being gay highly offends most straight people.

[JessicaKathlynn]

Grey99 - the reason that they talk about the "he" was because Gwen was a transgender female and was born male but she was being true to herself and dressed as the female that she was. October 3rd 4 Homophobic males decided to play god and kill her when she did NOT deserve to be killed when they found out the truth about the woman that they had been intimate with. She was beaten, Hung, Kicked and later Buried in a abandoned Field 4hrs from her home in N. Calif.

I disagree when the lady keeps referring to gwen as "eddie-gwen araujo" It should be just gwen araujo as gwen wanted it to be.

[linbob65]

Did her family have money to make her look like a woman permantly or was her mom making her save up?
