Episode 32 - Succession Musicians

Today on Fresh Pressed, Gabe and Andrew discuss several new releases, plus songs on this week's theme, Marsha P. Johnson. A Black drag queen (as she identified herself) who fought for queer rights in the 1960s and beyond, Marsha is widely considered one of the major activists in the Stonewall riots and the gay liberation movement in general. This week, we direct your attention toward the Marsha P. Johnson Institute, an organization that strives to support, promote, and elevate Black trans people. Find more at marshap.org.
