Transgender Day of Rememberance
Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR). On 11/20 every year we honor the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence.
In the past year there have been over 430 trans and gender non-conforming people who have lost their lives due to hate. 430 people whose only crime was to be their true and authentic self every day.
My friend Kelsey Campbell over at Gayta Science put together this powerful visualization of the violence my community faces constantly. Please take a look when you can:
