One Day in June

by Tourmaline, illustrated by Charlot Kristensen

Told through the eyes of an old friend, ‘One Day in June’ celebrates the life and activism of Marsha P. Johnson, a catalyst in the Stonewall uprising that would eventually become the Pride that we celebrate today. Filled with joyful anecdotes about Johnson’s imprint on New York City and beyond, and culminating in a massive rally for Black trans lives, ‘One Day in June’ is a jubilant recollection of Johnson’s life and legacy, imbued with hope and radical love.
