Another Transgender Day of Remembrance (or TDOR, for short) is upon us. It occurs on Nov. 20 each year in commemoration of the murder of trans-woman Rita Hester and is our opportunity to celebrate the lives and mourn the deaths of our brothers and sisters who have been murdered during the previous year. This years observances in hundreds of locations around the country and around the world mark the 10th anniversary of this solemn event. It is more than tragic that we continue to have no lack of victims to honor - this year 30 brothers and sisters have been murdered over the past 12 months.
