TDOR is an important day set aside to annually memorialize those who were killed due to anti-transgender hatred or prejudice. TDOE, on the other end of the spectrum, is a day set aside for transpeople and significant others, friends, families, and allies to celebrate transgender history and future, as well as celebrate our transseniors and our transyouth.
The transgender community is filled with a rich diversity of individuals; of every age, race, faith, identifiable gender, and socioeconomic background. The next generation of transpeople can look forward to less discrimination than the generations of transgender people past.
One day the idea of a day of celebration of transgender diversity will catch on as an idea for the broader transgender community -- for all of transpeople, significant others, friends, families, and of course wonderful allies.
