Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

The Transgender Day of Remembrance was set aside to memorialize those who were killed due to anti-transgender hatred or prejudice. The event is held in November to honor Rita Hester, whose murder on November 28th, 1998 kicked off the \u201cRemembering Our Dead<\/a>\u201d web project and a San Francisco candlelight vigil in 1999. Rita Hester\u2019s murder \u2014 like most anti-transgender murder cases \u2014 has yet to be solved.<\/p>\n

Although not every person represented during the Day of Remembrance self-identified as transgender \u2014 that is, as a transsexual, crossdresser, or otherwise gender-variant \u2014 each was a victim of violence based on bias against transgender people.<\/p>\n

The Transgender Day of Remembrance serves several purposes. It raises public awareness of hate crimes against transgender people, an action that current media doesn\u2019t perform. Day of Remembrance publicly mourns and honors the lives of our brothers and sisters who might otherwise be forgotten. Through the vigil, we express love and respect for our people in the face of national indifference and hatred. Day of Remembrance reminds non-transgender people that we are their sons, daughters, parents, friends and lovers. Day of Remembrance gives our allies a chance to step forward with us and stand in vigil, memorializing those of us who\u2019ve died by anti-transgender violence.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
