\"TransLEXINGTON, Ky.\u2014In 2012, the lives of more than 60 transgender individuals worldwide came to a violent end. They were beaten, strangled, shot, stabbed, burned and frequently mutilated\u2014all because they did not conform to society\u2019s established norms of gender identity.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn response to these abhorrent acts, groups of supporters gather annually in November to recognize and honor that year\u2019s victims. The Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to shine a light on the prejudice and hatred that leads to such violence.\n<\/p>\n

\nAn international event observed in over 185 cities in more than 20 countries, the Transgender Day of Remembrance was founded in 1998 by Gwendolyn Ann Smith, a transgender graphic designer, columnist and activist, to memorialize the murder of her friend Rita Hester in Allston, Mass.\n<\/p>\n

\nOn Nov. 22, three Transylvania University student organizations\u2014T-Unity, SAGE and the Genderbread House\u2014will sponsor a Trans* Day of Remembrance from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. The memorial service is open to the public and will include a candlelight vigil on the Old Morrison steps, during which those individuals slain in 2013 will be recognized. Participants can then go to the Campus Center Gym for a Resource Illumination Fair featuring information booths promoting public safety and equality. The organizers hope to have many local and regional organizations participate.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cFar too often, the struggles trans* folks face are ignored by the media and forgotten by the public,\u201d said Spencer Peach \u201816, one of the event organizers. \u201cThis event will increase awareness of the violence and discrimination the trans* community confronts, the resiliency of trans* individuals and the vibrancy of the trans* community. We hope the larger community will come away with a desire to put an end to the discrimination.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nPeach explained that the transgender community commonly uses the asterisk (\u201ctrans*\u201d) to represent the vast number of terms and identities encompassed by the transgender umbrella.\n<\/p>\n
