International Transgender Day of Remembrance - 11/20
Department / Organization: LGBTQ+ MCA
International Transgender Day of Rememberance is a day to memorialize transgender persons lost to anti-transgender violence.
Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. TDOR was started in 1999 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester. The vigil commemorated all the transgender people lost to violence since Rita Hester’s death, and began an important tradition that has become the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance.
