Day Of Remembrance & A Few Other Things.wmv

So today is Transgender Day Of Remembrance. LA's event comes in the wake of a murder Thursday night of a transwomen in Hollywood and another shooting an hour after that at the SAME park in West Hollywood where DOR was held. It is really sad that some people want to kill transpeople just for being different. How can something so beautiful, being who we are, be so scary to others? I don't understand.

I never thought last year @ The Day of Rememberance that I would be mentioned this year; I was jumped by 5 thugs for being Trans Sept 22. Broken nose...brused ribs...i just froze in shock while I was being beat with a brick...stomped and kicked...but I will never stop being me!

I finally got my name and gender marker changed on November 15th. 2011. Yay! I am thankful this thanksgiving for finding you on youtube 2 years ago! You videos have helped and inspired my transition....Thank you!

I don't know why people worry about saying "um" and "uh". Some people stutter, elongate words, or go for the awkward silences. But everyone does it in one way or another. It's fine, Meghan. And I really don't think you talk too fast.

Meghan, I am Jewish and we have Yom Hashoah, the Day of Remembrance for the Holocaust . The violence against people who just want to be themselves, whether Trans, Jewish, or who/whatever they are, is just so senseless. It is important for people to remember and work to try and prevent this type of violence from continuing. Thanks for the vid.
