SCImago Journal Rank (SJR indicator) is a measure of scientific influence of scholarly journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from.
One notable example is the story of Sylvia Rivera, a Latina trans woman who was a key figure in the Stonewall riots. Rivera's experiences with homelessness, violence, and marginalization highlight the intersectional challenges faced by trans individuals, particularly those of color. Her activism and advocacy work paved the way for future generations of trans leaders.
