Friday, March 31st marks the Transgender Day of Visibility, a time to celebrate and amplify trans representation. The North LGBTQ+ Resource Centre will be tabling in the LRC and sharing information about and what resistance, surviving and thriving might look like for trans and gender diverse folks.  From Trans Student Educational Resources: What is the Transgender Day of Visibility? TDOV is a day to show your support for the trans community. It aims to bring attention to the accomplishments of trans people around the globe while fighting cissexism and transphobia by spreading knowledge of the trans community. Unlike Transgender Day of Remembrance, this is not a day for mourning: this is a day of empowerment and getting the recognition we deserve! When is TDOV? TDoV is on March 31st every year! What is this year’s theme? This year’s theme is trans resistance (#TransResistance). In the increasingly transphobic global political climate, we must use our newfound visibility to mobilize trans people against oppression. Speaking out, taking direct action, and educating others is critical to our safety and wellbeing. This recognizes that while visibility is important, we must take action against transphobia. Visibility is not enough alone to bring transgender liberation. However, we can use visibility as a vital tool for transgender justice. TSER would like to thank activist and Trans Youth Leadership Summit fellow Caelan Damocles for coming up with this theme. Who started TDOV? Rachel Crandall, the head of Transgender Michigan, created in TDOV in 2010 to celebrate the trans community in a positive light. Read more about it here. Since 2013, Trans Student Educational Resources has taken over most social media, promotion, and outreach for TDOV. Who can I contact about TDOV?
