Marsha 'Pay it No Mind' Johnson by Brodolo

Marsha P Johnson: drag queen, trans woman of color, se.x worker, gay/trans liberation activist, and one of the first to stand up to the police during the stonewell riots. one of the many heroes of the que.er movement. theres been lots of talk about her and the stonewell riots since the movie about the events was announced with a whitewashed, incorrect cast that erases the true liberators. #gay #trans #transgender #drag #dragqueen #stonewall #stonewallriots #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtqia #poc

anyway um she never actually wore this particular get-up but i combined lots of stuff from pictures of her to make the headdress and stuff. all the pics i could use were poor quality (since theyre from the seventies obvs) so i had to improvise.
