TRANS DAY OF REMEMBRANCE



The Centre for Women and Trans People will commemorate this year’s Trans Day of Remembrance by offering a full Trans Week of Remembrance for Two Spirit, Intersex, and Trans people, and all who have been impacted by anti-trans violence and discrimination. A week is not enough – together let’s continue to actively resist violence and celebrate trans lives always. The Centre is honoured to be part of this work and hopes everyone has a chance to create a space for the remembrance of community members hurt or lost, and to collect and share in our own personal reflections.  

TUESDAY NOVEMBER 16


ABORIGINAL WOMEN AND WOMEN OF COLOUR GROUP: “What’s AWWOC without the T/2S?”  COMMUNITY discussion & POTLUCK

TIME:
LOCATION: The Centre for Women and Trans People UT
DESCRIPTION:

Participate in a facilitatated discussion by Mandy Longhouse Cayuga looking at how to build a more Two Spirit/trans inclusive group. We are hoping to begin examining AWWOC as the name of the group (how can it signify a trans inclusive space?) We feel asking the question “What is AWWOC without the T/2S?” is an important starting point in the growth and development of AWWOC furthering anti-oppression. Potluck event. Bring a dish or just bring yourself. All welcome. Allies welcome.

Events may expand and details may change. Feel free to contact The Centre for full details, updates or accessibility needs.
