The Activism and Legacy of Marsha P. Johnson with Tourmaline

Artist and author Tourmaline joins the show to talk about her 20 years of research on LGBTQ icon Marsha P. Johnson, the Black trans woman who was one of the key figures of the Stonewall Uprising. We go through hidden queer history from the hourly hotels where Marsha and her friends could express their genders to turn of the century lesbians to the Black room at Stonewall to bottom surgery at Johns Hopkins in the 60s and 70s. We’ve come so far and yet nothing changes. It was an honor to have Tourmaline on in this moment to discuss queer and trans activism through the ages. Prepare to have chills.  Join Gabe’s Substack at athousandnaturalshocks.substack.com Donate to Our Movie: https://www.filmindependent.org/sponsored-projects/you-i-you-me/ This has been a Noted Bisexual and Diamond MPrint Productions Produced by Melisa D.
