Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada is hosting a TDOR event as well:

6th Annual Winnipeg Transgender Day of Remembrance
Saturday, November 20 · 5:00pm - 7:00pm
Circle of Life Thunderbird House, 715 Main St.

Winnipeg’s 6th Annual Transgender Day of Remembrance (WTDOR)
Remember. Honour. Embrace. Celebrate. Educate. Advocate.

November 20, 2010 marks the sixth annual Winnipeg Transgender Day of Remembrance (WTDOR) and the 12th annual International TDOR. This day serves as an opportunity to recognize, honour, embrace, celebrate, and remember the people who encounter or endure discrimination, prejudice, persecution, isolation, or violence ...because of their [perceived] gender identity and/or expression.

TDOR is also about raising awareness, educating, and advocating for the rights and recognition of individuals who identify as transgender, trans
sexual, genderqueer, any variation of/from/beyond these. This free, all ages, event will be located in an accessible, drug and alcohol free venue. We will be handing out an agenda shortly, after the moment of silence there will be one song drummed.

TDOR

Austin, Texas

Saturday, November 20th
6:30 pm
301 W. 2nd Street
Austin 78767

We live in times more sensitive than ever to hatred based violence. Over the last decade, more than one person per month has died due to transgender-based hate or prejudice, regardless of any other factors in their lives. This trend shows no sign of abating. Many of these crimes remain unreported and unsolved.

With this in mind we invite you to please stand with us in solidarity Saturday, November 20, 2010 at 6:30 pm on the steps of City Hall.

Just a reminder that these services are coming up...

I hope you'll be able to attend one in your area.

I am going to do my best to be at the one in St. Pete.

Leigh · 11-15-2010, 11:59 PM

EnderD_503 · 11-16-2010, 07:30 AM

Will be attending here in T.O.

Alpha Dog · 11-19-2010, 06:10 PM

Due to the weather forecasts (RAIN) this Saturday, the SF Transgender DOR Planning committee decided to NOT start the event at City Hall. We will hold the entire event at Ark of Refuge, 1025 Howard Street, starting at 6:30PM, Saturday, November 20th.

There is nothing going on near me but I will be thinking of all of you and remembering in my way. I had a few whispers about there being some sort of remembrance at the university pride group nearby but they keep things very quiet no location announced. Not a good area for the glb and especially the t's.

I viewed the Documentary 'Two Spirits'. Last night I loved the presentation and the audience participation afterwards.
