Trans Brilliance Now
In the fifty years since the Stonewall Rebellion, the LGBT community has seen major wins and losses. Media narratives about the legacy of Stonewall are often overwhelmingly positive, creating easily consumable portrayals of historical figures and events. But those struggles are still with us.
We didn’t just inherit the legacy of Marsha P. Johnson and Syliva Rivera—working class trans people build upon it every day, politically and culturally. Listen to a panel of important contemporary trans political and culture makers reflect on the radical legacy of Stonewall, and how trans life resists and flourishes today.
