Boston observes the Transgender Day of Remembrance with community speak-out.

"You know it all started here," said Nancy Nangeroni, Chair of the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC) Steering Committee and longtime Boston-area activist.

On Nov. 20 Nangeroni led a crowd of over 300 people from Boston's Cathedral Church of Saint Paul to the steps of the State House, and through the Boston Common. At the steps of the Parkman Bandstand, she gathered the crowd into a circle and passed a microphone around to vigil goers who read the names of transgender murder victims aloud.
