Hope & Healing: A Trans Day of Remembrance Storytelling Event

Join us for a special evening of storytelling as we explore remembrance through the lens of hope and healing.
About this Event

Trans Day of Remembrance is a time to honor the lives lost to anti-transgender violence. This year, we're coming together to reflect on what remembrance means to us and how we find hope, even in difficult moments. Through personal stories from LGBTQ+ community members, families, and allies, we'll hear different perspectives on healing and the role community plays in helping us move forward.

This year's event also honors the memory of Professor Wiley Davi, whose loss has had a deep, ongoing impact on the Bentley community. Building on Pride and Purpose's storytelling tradition, this collaboration brings our communities together in support of Bentley's Rainbow Scholars Leadership Development Program. Event proceeds will support the program's work to empower LGBTQ+ students to lead and create meaningful change.
