Transgender Day of Remembrance [TDOR] is commemorated on November 20 each year and is the single most important observance on the calendar for trans* people and their communities. On this day we memorialize and celebrate the lives of all trans* people, known and unknown, who have been murdered out of fear and hate during the past year. TDOR is also an act of resistance, a way to restore dignity, a vigil for justice, an opportunity for trans* people to rise up from isolation and to seek support, and an opportunity to recommit to live our lives with determination and hope.
