Hampshire Feminist Collective, the local feminist group with which I’m involved, has organised a candlelit vigil to mark Transgender Day of Remembrance.
From the Facebook event page:
Transgender Day of Remembrance is an annual international event founded in the wake of the 1998 murder of Rita Hester, a trans woman of colour, which was the impetus for the Remember Our Dead project and a San Francisco candlelit vigil in 1999. On this day we honour the dead and the survivors and express support and respect for trans* people everywhere.
The vigil will be held at 7.30pm on Tuesday 20th November 2012 outside Southampton central library. Please join us if you can.
