Let's show some love to one of our cherished elders this pride month (and every month, but I'm posting it now). See this link to donate to a fundraiser to help secure shelter, food, and medical care for Miss Major.
"Miss Major has fought tirelessly for justice and freedom from the Stonewall Riots in 1969 to her role as Executive Director of the Transgender, Gender Variant, and Intersex Justice Project (TGIJP) in San Francisco since 2006. As a black, formerly incarcerated transgender leader, mother, and grandmother, Major has paved the way for us to be who and where we are today. This Major Love Monthly Giving Circle was initiated two years ago due to the difficulties of aging, rising medical costs, and budget cuts in 2012/3 to TGIJP that left Miss Major without an income. The giving circle had a powerful revival about a year ago, when Miss Major's apartment caught fire and almost all of her personal belongings were severely damaged. Thankfully, she and her pooch Moose were unharmed."
