Description
Miss Major Speaks: Conversations with a Black Trans Revolutionary
A remarkable life story told with intimacy, warmth and an undeniable levity, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy shares her experiences as a veteran of the Stonewall Riots, a former sex worker, and a transgender elder and activist who has survived numerous challenges. Her incredible story becomes a roadmap for the challenges black, brown, queer and trans youth will face on the path to liberation today.
Miss Major offers a unique perspective on collective liberation, warning about the traps of 'representation' and the politics of 'self-care', while affirming that our vision for freedom can be more expansive than those offered by mainstream institutions. This book is a powerful strike against those who would erase these histories of struggle.
