Aired on November 19th, today I talk about Transgender Day of Remembrance, which falls on November 20th 2015.

From the archives, in 1997, one year before Transgender Day of Remembrance started, Queer FM's Heather Kitching handed the mic over to two trans* activists on Commercial Drive in Vancouver. One is Mardi Pieronick of PACE (Prostitution Alternatives Counselling Education), and the other contributor is unnamed. They talk about their personal journeys as trans* women and address barriers that they fight through activism.
