Our friends at Keshet and Svara's Trans Halakha Project invite you to:
Trans Day of Remembrance Yortzeit Candle
CBST has partnered with Keshet to create a Trans Day of Remembrance Yortzeit Candle Sticker. If your observance permits, we ask you to share this picture of the Trans Day of Remembrance Yortzeit Candle on social media to honor those we have lost and to promote the visibility of this sacred day. Hashtags: #TDOR #TDOR2021 #FromMourningToLiberation #TDORyortzeitcandle #TransDayOfRemembrance If you have a printer and a yortzeit candle, you can print out the sticker here and place it on your candle, otherwise feel free to simply share the photo. We invite you to share this, or to reach out to jkatz@cbst.org with any questions. And take a look at other TDOR resources from Keshet here.
