Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR), which occurs annually on November 20, is a day to memorialize those who have been murdered as a result of transphobia and to bring attention to the continued violence endured by the transgender community. The Transgender Day of Remembrance was founded in 1999 by Gwendolyn Ann Smith, a trans woman who is a graphic designer, columnist, and activist, to memorialize the murder of Rita Hester in Allston, Massachusetts. Since its inception, TDoR has been held annually on November 20,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hrc.org/campaigns/transgender-day-remembrance )〕 and it has slowly evolved from the web-based project started by Smith into an international day of action. In 2010, TDoR was observed in over 185 cities throughout more than 20 countries.〔St. Pierre, E. (2010). TDoR Events and Locations 2010. Transgenderdor.org.〕 Typically, a TDoR memorial includes a reading of the names of those who lost their lives during the previous year,〔 * *〕 and may include other actions, such as candlelight vigils, art shows, food drives, film screenings, and marches.〔 *St. Pierre, E.
