Trans* Day of Rememberance

Friday, November 20, 2015 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The Transgender Day of Remembrance was started by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was killed in 1998.

Transgender Day of Remembrance recognizes the individuals lost due to anti-transgender violence and suicide. The event raises awareness of hate crimes against transgender individuals, in addition to providing a public memorial where people can mourn the loss of those who have lost their lives. It also serves as a way for LGBTQ+ community and Allies to come together.

Everyone is invited to join the Multicultural Student Center on Friday, November 20 at the Reflecting Pond 7 p.m. as UCF hosts a candlelight vigil in recognition of Transgender Day of Remembrance. Read More
