abstract="Scholars are only beginning to take account of how trans people experience violence motivated by their gender identity and expression. Based on a series of focus groups and interviews across Canada, this article aims to further this area of inquiry. The fear of victimization, and thus hyper-vigilance, seems to be particularly acute among trans women. Many of them spoke of the multiple and complex layers through which they defined &quot;safety&quot; and lack thereof. We share their experiences and perceptions of the threat of hate motivated violence, and their subsequent reactions.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
