2020 Transgender Day of Remembrance
The Transgender Day of Remembrance honors and remembers those lost to hate crimes against the Transgender community in our nation. It is a stark reminder that the fight for equality is far from over, and is a chance to raise awareness of the bias and hate aimed at our Transgender family.
The 2020 Transgender Day of Remembrance recognizes those who died in the period between October 1, 2019 and September 30, 2020. This year, we honor these 47 lives and the countless others who died as a result of anti-transgender violence in the US.
