Calendar notes

It’s never not Trans Awareness something – month, day, year, week, century, decade, whatever – they’re all Trans of them.

No no Fred, it’s never enough, never never NEVER.

GLAAD confirms.

Each year between November 13 – 19, people and organizations around the country participate in Transgender Awareness Week to help increase understanding about transgender people and the issues members of the community face.

Trans Awareness Week takes place the week before Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20. Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR), is an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence that year.

Transgender Awareness Week is a week when transgender people and their allies take action to bring attention to the trans community by educating the public about who transgender people are, sharing stories and experiences, and advancing advocacy around issues of prejudice, discrimination, and violence that affect the transgender community.

As is every other week of the year. Transgender people and their allies never stop taking action to bring attention to the trans community. They literally never shut up about it for one second.

(Why aren’t more people bored by this? Seriously. Why isn’t there a saturation point. Why haven’t more people had enough yet? Even if you agree that trans people are the most blah blah aren’t you sick of hearing about it every second?)

Human Rights Campaign confirms.

Honor Transgender Awareness Week and Transgender Day of Remembrance with HRC

Transgender Awareness Week and Transgender Day of Remembrance is a time for the LGBTQ+ community to celebrate, uplift and honor our trans community.

By publicly demonstrating support while challenging anti-trans legislation and negative rhetoric, we can turn our solidarity as LGBTQ+ people and allies into a collective power to advance equality and justice.

What equality and justice do trans people not have?

Never you mind. Get busy celebrating and uplifting.
