Join the Black Liberation Autonomous Collective (BLAC) and Sisters PGH for Trans Day of Remembrance 2024, an evening dedicated to honoring the transgender lives lost to violence and systemic oppression over the past year. This powerful gathering will include a candlelight vigil, community reflections, and spoken tributes to amplify the voices of those we’ve lost and inspire action against transphobia and injustice. Together, we affirm resilience, solidarity, and the collective fight for liberation.
Call to Action:
Let us stand together in remembrance, resilience, and solidarity as we continue the fight for justice and embark on an even more devastating journey under a new administration that does not respect our existence.
