Trans Day of Remembrance

Every year, on and around November 20, various events across the globe and here in Simcoe County are held to mark Trans Day of Remembrance (TDOR). Stay tuned for details on 2019's TDOR events throughout Simcoe County.
​
​About TDOR
Trans 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-trans murder cases — has yet to be solved.

TDOR honours the memory of those who have been killed, lost, or have struggled as a result of transphobia and the hatred or fear of trans people.
