Transgender Day of Remembrance is a day to name and mourn the many transgender, nonbinary and gender non-conforming people murdered each year because of their gender identity. On this day, we raise awareness of the extreme violence committed against transgender people simply for existing as they are. On this day, we commit to the work of creating a healed world where all gender identities and gender presentations are met with not only respect but celebration.
