Laura Flanders & Friends
Marsha P. Johnson’s Queer Legacy Lives On
Season 2
Episode 213
On this Pride Month edition of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, we’re celebrating Marsha P. Johnson with two activists carrying her story forward. We also unpack the media’s coverage of transphobia and the recent Tennessee ruling that restricts gender-affirming care for minors. In the face of backlash and repression, how are artists and activists reframing media narratives for queer and trans liberation?
