Nov. 20 is nationally recognized as Trans Day of Remembrance. This day serves as an opportunity to remember and mourn members of the transgender community that have been lost due to lethal violence and suicide. 

Fort Lewis College hosted two separate community events to honor this day.

The Center of Southwest Studies hosted musician Kino Benally on November 6 for a workshop on music and soundscape production. Benally, also known by the name of Dj Béeso, is a Diné artist from Shiprock, NM. He works as an independent musician and sound engineer.

Drag is a performance that seeks to exaggerate gender expression, whether feminine, masculine, a combination of both or other forms of gender expression. This is typically for entertainment purposes. 

Every year on Halloween night, The Gender and Sexuality Resource Center hosts a spooky-themed drag show in the ballroom at Fort Lewis College. This is one of their most attended events of the year, according to assistant director, Al Wolfe. 

This event seeks to provide students with something to do on Halloween night without having to leave campus, while providing a safe space for the queer community and allies, Wolfe said.  

The safety and protection of students is a big priority, with this year's attendees being required to present their FLC identification, Wolfe said.
