#TransDayOfRemembrance, when we honor the memories of trans people who have lost their lives to violence, is this coming Monday, November 20. Head to TransRemembrance.org to visit Advocates for Trans Equality's memorial for those we have lost in the last year.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day dedicated to honoring the lives of our trans siblings who were lost to anti-trans violence & discrimination. We must all work together to build a world where all transgender people can live in fullness, safety, & dignity. #TDOR2023
