This week we honor Pride Month with a discussion/history lesson on the origins of Pride, Marsha P. Johnson, Stonewall, and shout out some truly incredible Queer-owned businesses to support!

 

Charity/NonProfit:

Marsha P. Johnson Institute - The Marsha P. Johnson institute (MPJI) protects and defends the human rights of Black transgender people.  They do this by organizing, advocating, creating an intentional community to heal, developing transformative leadership, and promoting our collective power.  MPJI intends to reclaim Marsha P. Johnson and the relationship from Black trans people to her life and legacy.  "It is in our reclaiming of Marsha that we give ourselves permission to reclaim autonomy to our minds, to our bodies, and to our futures."  MPJI was founded both as a response to the murders of Black trans women and women of color and how that is connected to the exclusion of these populations from social justice issues, namely racial, gender, and reproductive justice, as well as gun violence.  Marshap.org
