believe-out-loud: [The terminology in this image is historic but not currently accurate.]  We remember today the victims of anti-transgender prejudice and violence as we observe the Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR).  TDOR began as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was killed in 1998. Hester is featured in this painting by Mary Button alongside an image of Jesus’ crucifixion and a news photo of an early TDOR vigil. The term “transgenders” is most commonly replaced today by “transgender people.” Related:  Courage To Connect: Observing The Transgender Day Of Remembrance 10 Things Churches Should Know About Transgender Day Of Remembrance Our Lives Are Valuable Image created by Mary Button for the Stations of the Cross: The Struggle for LGBT Equality. -- source link
