What is Transgender Day of Remembrance?

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is an annual observance on November 20th that honors the memory of transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. It was founded in 1999 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith to memorialize the murder of Rita Hester in Allston, Massachusetts.

Significance of Transgender Day of Remembrance

This day is important for several reasons:

  • It raises public awareness of hate crimes against transgender people
  • It provides a day for transgender people and allies to publicly mourn and honor the lives of those who might otherwise be forgotten
  • It expresses love and respect for transgender people in the face of national indifference and hatred
  • It reminds non-transgender people that transgender people are their sons, daughters, parents, friends and lovers
