Monday, Nov. 14
Creating an Altar for our
Trans & GNC Loved Ones
Stop by and help us in making an altar at the Office of LGBT Life to honor and remember those who have been lost to transphobic violence.
The Human Rights Campaign, in continuing the pioneering work of trans journalist Monica Roberts, keeps track of fatal violence against transgender individuals. Sadly, 2022 has already seen at least 32 transgender people fatally shot or killed by violent means, a number that is more than likely a significant undercount.
Join us from 11am to 1pm on Monday November 14 in AMUC 132 (the Office of LGBT Life) to honor these individuals and contribute to the love and care for our trans and GNC family.
THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO ALL
