Description
Hello everyone!
Today I am honoured to present this piece commissioned by akiestar for DeviantArt's Pride Campaign, about the history of LGBTQ+ art and how it has evolved throughout history, you can download the image, it would make me incredibly happy and humbled if you showcase it on your page so feel free to share!
Here is a link for the journal!
I wanted to create something that paid homage to our history and also celebrated it, so I illustrated Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, two iconic transgender women who fought for our rights and dedicated their life to activism and helping our community.
It's exhausting dealing with a pandemic, a rebellion, political, economic, environmental and social change, all at once, but it's important we keep on fighting, to not let ignorant, hateful and corrupt world leaders take away our right to be here, in the words of Marsha: "No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us."
Here is a list of some organizations that specifically benefit Queer and Trans PoC you can support, via @keenanblogger on instagram:
Sylvia Rivera Law Project
Black Visions Collective
Fierce NYC
Freedom Fund
Black Trans Travel Fund
Black and Pink
The Audre Lorde Project
For the Gworls Party
The Okra Project
National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network
NYC Anti-Violence Project
G.L.I.T.S.
Happy Pride! Stay strong and be safe.
