PRIDE: The beauty of our Gender Identity

MARSHA P. JOHNSON
This is Marsha P. Johnson, iconic trans activist for her participation in the Stonewall repression. Since then she and Sylvia Rivera, another iconic activist, founded multiple shelters for LGBT+ outcasts and a foundation for the ones affected by HIV+. I wanted to show her true beauty, though in those times she was not considered as such. She meant a mother/father to a lot of people, and we can't deny her influence in our community. I hope I can show at least a little of her outstanding role with this illustration.
