Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR), established in 1999 by activist Gwendolyn Ann Smith to honor Rita Hester—a Black trans woman whose murder was overlooked—has become a global observance. Each year, vigils and ceremonies are held to remember those lost to violence against transgender and nonbinary individuals.

In 2025, over 335 trans and gender-diverse individuals were reported killed due to violence, su***de, or neglect, though many cases remain unreported.

TDOR serves not only to mourn but to bear witness, acknowledging the pain of those lost and committing to a future where trans people can live safely and authentically. Participation in TDOR, through vigils or moments of silence, underscores the importance of these lives and the ongoing fight for justice and dignity.

Transgender individuals deserve to live with dignity, safety, and joy—everywhere, every day.

Being an ally goes beyond kind words; it requires action, advocacy, and amplification. Here’s how we can show up:

✨ Always respect names and pronouns.
✨ Speak up against transphobia, even when it feels uncomfortable.
✨ Support transgender-led organizations and mutual aid initiatives.
✨ Celebrate trans joy, resilience, and brilliance.

Allyship is an active commitment. Let’s work together to create safer, more inclusive, and affirming communities for our trans siblings. Trans rights are human rights, and none of us are truly free until all of us are free.

The flag is more than just a set of colors; it represents pride, resilience, and truth. Designed by Monica Helms in 1999, the transgender flag is symmetrical—no matter how it is displayed, it is always right side up. This reflects the idea that there is no wrong way to be yourself.

The fight for transgender rights and acceptance continues. Whether you identify as transgender, are an ally, or are simply curious, acknowledging and respecting this flag is an easy and visible way to show your support.

Trans is beautiful. Trans is powerful. Trans is here.
