The Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) is a day set aside every year on November 20 to grieve and remember the lives lost to anti-transgender violence around the globe. It is a day to recognize how violence against trans bodies is inextricable from racism, classism, housing crisis, colonialism, sexism, and homophobia, such that ongoing violence disproportionately impacts Indigenous, Black, and racialized Two-Spirit, trans, and gender diverse people, especially trans women.
This year, on November 20, 2025, Trallard and OutLaws are hosting a teach-in about the history and importance of the day, followed by a short outdoor memorial starting at 1:30pm to commemorate the lives lost this year. There will also be a community art-build during the memorial, to which attendees can contribute messages of rage, grief, hope, and any other feelings they experience.
All faculty, staff, students, and UBC community are welcome to join us in solidarity, with love and care. We invite attendees to bring flowers, trans flags, newspaper clippings, or other contributions for the memorial outside Allard Hall.
