Marsha P. Johnson, The Saint of Gay Life | Episode 105 by Hosts Hannah Fergesen and Deanna Greif | Produced by Benjamin Garst

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. 

CONTENT WARNING for violence against transgender people starting after 25 minutes.
