SUMMARY:International Transgender Day of Visibility
DESCRIPTION:Each year on March 31\, the world observes Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV) to raise awareness about transgender people. It is a day to celebrate the lives and contributions of trans people\, while also drawing attention to the poverty\, discrimination\, and violence the community faces. \nInternational TDOV was created in 2010 by trans advocate Rachel Crandall. Crandall\, the head of Transgender Michigan\, created TDOV in response to the overwhelming majority of media stories about transgender people being focused on violence. She hoped to create a day where people could celebrate the lives of transgender people\, while still acknowledging that due to discrimination\, not every trans person can or wants to be visible. \nYou can find more info about the day here: https://glaad.org/tdov/

SUMMARY:International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination
DESCRIPTION:Guided by the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination\, the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination recognizes that the injustices and prejudices fueled by racial discrimination take place every day. Observed annually on March 21\, it commemorates the day police in Sharpeville\, South Africa\, opened fire and killed 69 people at a peaceful demonstration against apartheid “pass laws” in 1960. \nWhile much progress has been made\, Indigenous peoples\, and racialized and religious minority communities in Canada continue to face racism and discrimination every day. This day serves as a call to action for individuals\, organizations\, and all levels of government to actively work to eliminate all forms of racial discrimination\, injustice\, systemic racism and hate. Re-committing efforts\, to ensure all people are respected and have equal access and opportunity to be safe and to succeed. \nYou can find more info at: https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/programs/federal-anti-racism-secretariat/international-day-elimination-racial-discrimination.html
