REMEMBERING OUR TRANSCESTORS: INTERNATIONAL TRANSGENDER DAY OF REMEMBRANCE VIGIL AND DINNER
On this year’s Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR), join the Queer Activist Collective (Q), the LGBTQIA+ Center for Faculty & Staff, and the LGBTQIA+ Faculty & Staff Community Network in gathering together as a community in the GSU Terrace Lounge to honor the memory of transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. There will be a short program to provide awareness & education about TDOR, including community action steps we can take to prevent future deaths. This will be followed by a name reading ceremony & vigil to highlight the lives of trans and gender-non-conforming community members we have lost across New England.
After the vigil, we will join together for a community meal. Please register below so that we can plan regarding catering.
Sponsored by the Queer Activist Collective, LGBTQIA+ Center for Faculty & Staff, and LGBTQIA+ Faculty & Staff Community NetworkWhen | 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm on Monday, November 20, 2023 |
