I like to listen to podcasts while I paint. Recently, I listened to ep 225 () & ep 247 - both discussing the Stonewall Riots. Both podcasts mention LGBTQ+ pioneer Marsha P Johnson who's life came to an early & tragic ending. (1/2)

We remember the Stonewall uprising and the vital role Black LGBTQ people played in history. Pride is intersectional with trailblazers like Stormé DeLarverie, Marsha P. Johnson and Miss Major leading the way. Their legacy lives on in the fight for freedom and justice.

As Pride begins, I’d like to emphasize that it's not just a celebration - it’s an ongoing movement. That was the spirit of Marsha P. Johnson, who used the Stonewall riots as a starting point for her activism.

Today, I’m grateful for Marsha, and those who follow her lead.
