“More needs to be done.” Transgender Day of Remembrance memorializes those killed

AUSTN (KXAN) – Monday night hundreds are expected to gather at Austin city hall for the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Between November 2016 and this year, 29 transgender men and women were killed in the United States.
“It’s an epidemic and primarily it’s transgender women of color that are murdered, and a lot of times if we look at minority populations they have lack of access to resources,” says Mason Vaughan, organizer of Transgender Day of Remembrance.
