“Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to highlight the losses we face due to anti-transgender bigotry and violence.

With so many seeking to erase transgender people — sometimes in the most brutal ways possible — it is vitally important that those we lose are remembered, and that we continue to fight for justice.” – Transgender Day of Remembrance founder?Gwendolyn Ann Smith Learn more: https://glaad.org/tdor/
