Transgender Day of Remembrance candlelight vigil

Equality Illinois, LGBT Change, AIDS Foundation of Chicago, Join the Impact, and other groups gather at dusk to memorialize the transgendered victims of violent crimes in the past year. Let's stand together in trying to raise awareness about these tragedies beyond the LGBT community alone. A candlelight vigil and reading of names will be on the agenda. Keynote speaker, and local Transgender Advocate Marti Abernathey will be speaking about violence and discrimination towards Transgender people.
