Stonewall veteran Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away this week at the age of 78.
Miss Major was a pivotal activist and organizer for LGBTQ2S+ liberation for decades—from the Stonewall riots, to AIDS activism and abolition work. She founded the House of GG, served as the director of the Transgender Gender-Variant & Intersex Justice Project and fiercely advocated for trans rights throughout her life. In 2023, Miss Major told her story in Miss Major Speaks.
We honour her legacy, and lessons, in her own words.
