Marsha P. Johnson, The Saint of Gay Life | Episode 105
Portrait of Marsha P. Johnson
Marsha P. Johnson is a name we likely all know as the woman who threw the first shot glass at Stonewall, launching the Stonewall Riots and thus the Gay Liberation movement. But Marsha was much more: she was an activist, a performer, a Christian, a transgender woman, and so much more. Her history is as bold and vibrant as she was, and was ended too soon. We owe it to her to keep her whole, vibrant legacy alive.
