Today is #TransDayOfRemembrance. Trans people and their human rights are under attack around the globe. The Vagina Museum stands defiant against these attacks. We are a proudly trans inclusive space, even as discourse grows ever more toxic.

A reminder: today is the Trans Day of Remembrance. For those unfamiliar, this is when we remember trans people who were killed by acts of violence.
On a day like this, and in the current broader crisis as well: it can be hard to remember that you are loved and to allow yourself to feel that love. Please take extra care of yourselves today.
Practicing both compassion for ourselves and compassion for each other is incredibly important in grief. Although many of us have lost people directly, there are also many who have not and who want to support those in their lives who have.
Here are a couple of resources that will hopefully help.
Self-compassion in grief:

Compassion for others in grief:

**Edit** I wanted to add a more explicit request in here, rather than just leaving it to inference: please tell trans people in your life that you love and appreciate them every day but especially today.
