Trans Day of Remembrance 

Wednesday, November 20, 2019 - 8:00am to 8:00pm

The trans flags on Locust Walk in front of Steinberg-Dietrich Hall across from the Graduate Student Center and Penn Women’s Center.

This location is ADA accessible

On November 20, 2019, the LGBT Center (Center) is taking over Locust Walk.

Every hour, on the hour, a student and faculty or staff member will assemble to read aloud the names of the reported 24 gender nonconforming, nonbinary, or transgender humans who were assassinated in 2019.

These ten-minute segments throughout the day are borne from the Black Radical Tradition and ACT-UP, seeking to interrupt complacency, the status quo, and ambivalence. There will be no moderator. It will just be the two (or more) of you building an essential and spontaneous moment of action.
