Trans Day of Remembrance: Advancing the Human Rights of Trans People across the Globe
From Latin America, to the Middle East, from Africa to Asia, we remember….
“The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC) today honors the memory of the many trans men and women whom we have lost across the globe. From Latin America, to the Middle East, from Africa to Asia discrimination, ignorance, transphobia and violence have unduly taken the lives of innocent trans men and women who sought to live with dignity and respect. In remembering their lives and their sacrifice, we also honor the courageous work activists and allies around the world do each day to advance the human rights of all trans people.”
Cary Alan Johnson, Executive Director, IGLHRC
