“No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us.”

Marsha P. Johnson

1945-1992

Marsha P. Johnson was a trailblazing Black trans activist who played a prominent role in the Stonewall uprising in 1969 and bravely advocated for LGBTQ+ rights until her death. As we embark on Pride Month, Marsha’s words serve as a reminder to continue to evolve and grow in inclusion and acceptance for all members of the LGBTQ+ community. Happy Pride!
