Today is the Trans Day of Remembrance. It is also the Trans Day of Resilience. Rather than sharing our own thoughts, we’ve decided to do – as we’ve done all month long – to amplify the voices of trans artists, activists and writers. Here are some reflections on the Trans Day of Remembrance and Resilience.
“Trans Day of Remembrance: A Letter of Blessings to My 16-Year-Old Self” – Janet Mock
“Their Laws Will Never Make Us Safer” – Dean Spade (PDF)
“A Transgender Man’s Personal Day of Remembrance and Vision for the Path Ahead” – Lex Beatty
“Trans Artists Made These Stunning Posters for Trans Day of Remembrance” – Meredith Talusan
“Quiet Reflections: Why I Choose Silence on Trans Day of Remembrance” – Janet Mock
