Raising Awareness

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance to memorialize those who were killed due to transgender hatred or prejudice. The event is held in November to honor and remember Rita Hester who was a victim to an anti-transgender murder back in November 28th 1998. It is so important to raise public awareness of these hate crimes against transgendered people and to honor the lives of those who were victims of anti-transgendered murders. It is time to step forward and to remember that we must treat all equally.
