Transgender Day of Remembrance
Written by Jeanne Gainsburg   
Wednesday, 12 November 2008

The Gay Alliance of the Genesee Valley invites you to join us in commemorating the tenth annual Transgender Day of Remembrance on Thursday, November 20 at 7pm in the Gay Alliance Youth Center (875 E. Main Street, first floor, Prince St. entrance). We will be marking the occasion with a night of art and spoken word from a number of local trans individuals.

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 "Remembering Our Dead" web project and a San Francisco candlelight vigil in 1999. Rita Hester's murder — like most anti-transgender murder cases — has yet to be solved.

If you have questions concerning this event, please contact Ceridwen at 585-244-8640 or ceridwent@gagv.us.  We hope you will join us.
