Wednesday, November 20, 20224 is the Transgender Day of Remembrance.
The Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR), also known as the International Transgender Day of Remembrance, has been observed annually from its inception on November 20 to memorialize those who have been murdered as a result of transphobia. The day was founded to draw attention to the continued violence directed toward transgender people.
Here are the posts and/or content on this blog that I think you should read this year for TDoR.
