It’s the 11th Annual Transgender Day Of Remembrance and SWOP-Boston will be marching in solidarity with red umbrellas. This is a symbol for our beauty, strength, and resistance to abuse, violence and discrimination. This march is a memorial for the many transgender people murdered this year, the majority of whom were sex workers on the job at the time of death. The event is a non-worship, non-denominational program of invited speakers, including a statement from SWOP-Boston. The march stops in Union Square for a candlelight vigil where it will be read aloud the names of those murdered this past year.
THE DATE: November 20
THE TIME: 7PM
THE PLACE: St. Luke’s & St. Margaret’s church in Allston at 5 St. Luke’s Rd.
