Transgender Day of Remembrance

Transgender Day of Remembrance observance will be held at Battle Creek VA Medical Center on Wednesday, November 20, from 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m., in Building 82, Chapel.

“Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to highlight the losses we face due to anti-transgender bigotry and violence. I am no stranger to the need to fight for our rights, and the right to simply exist is first and foremost. With so many seeking to erase transgender people – sometimes in the most brutal ways possible – it is vitally important that those we lose are remembered, and that we continue to fight for justice.”
- Transgender Day of Remembrance founder, Gwendolyn Ann Smith
