We honor these beautiful women who lost their lives at the hands of someone they loved.

April has been a brutal and horrendous month of violence against Black women by their partners and in one case by her son.
We need to have this conversation about the safety of our sisters and the harm that comes from the Black men in their lives.

Dr. Cerina Fairfax, a mother to two children and a dentist serving Fairfax County, was shot and k*lled by her husband, former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, according to police. He then turned the gun on himself.

Pastor Tammy McCollum was shot and k*lled by her husband Eddie McCollum. He stated that he fatally shot her during an argument inside their North Carolina home. (They were married for more than 30 years)

Florida Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer Brown was k*lled by her husband, Stephen Bowen. He has been charged with premeditated murder in what police have called a “domestic violence incident."

Content influencer Ashly Robinson (aka Ashlee Jenae) died in Zanzibar under mysterious circumstances. She was visiting there with her new fiancée Joe McCann, an American crypto trader. During the trip, the couple had moved into separate villas because of “domestic conflicts.” McCann is being questioned by the police and they are holding his passport.

Detroit rapper Qualeshia “Saditty” Barnes was shot and k*lled in Atlanta in her Range Rover. She was 14 weeks pregnant. It has been reported that she was allegedly shot by her boyfriend who did not want her to keep the baby as he feared it would end his marriage.

Davonta Curtis, a trans woman from Chicago, was beaten to death in her apartment by her boyfriend Deandre Bell, her on-again, off-again boyfriend. According to reports, Bell allegedly googled “how to kill someone with a hammer” and “if a person gets hit in the head with a hammer while sleeping what happens” before murdering Curtis.

Barbara Deer, a licensed speech pathologist who worked almost two decades with Chicago Public Schools, was shot and k*lled by her son who then turned the gun on himself. She was committed to carrying on the legacy of her late husband, Cook County Commissioner Dennis Deer.

We need to speak their names and uplift their stories
