Fall River, Mass. (November 8, 2022) – The Fall River Pride Committee (FRPC) is for the second time hosting a walk for Transgender Day of Remembrance, starting at noon at Heritage State Park; 5 Water Street in Fall River, Massachusetts on November 20th.

“Please help us come remember the lives that were lost to us too soon, don’t let their sacrifices be in vain.”, says Ren Perry, an executive member of the FRPC. “Come support our community and give love.”

The FRPC is also holding their monthly free drag story time at the Fall River Public Library on Saturday, December 10th at 10:30 a.m. with special guest The Gothfather.

December’s reading list includes:
