I was a little bummed because I couldn't be at the historic international trans conference taking place through tomorrow in Barcelona, Spain.
The disappointment became more pronounced after I began seeing pics and reports on their Facebook pages and blogs from many of my international friends I correspond with at regular intervals such as Naomi from PinayTG and Sass Rogando Sasot.
I knew Dr. Kelley Winters was there, but I began to wonder if once again, a major historic trans event was happening, and we African American transpeeps had no one there to represent us.
Well, got sent a message by my friend Sharyn that one of our legendary trans women, Miss Major, is in Barcelona and representing us. She's been at the preconference events that started June 1 and I'm looking forward to hearing her take on what transpired in Spain.
I know our interests will be articulated well with Miss Major representing us.
Look for Miss Major (and her partner) in an upcoming documentary "Transfrancisco" premiering at the Frameline Festival on Saturday, June 19, 11:00 AM at the Victoria Theatre in San Francisco.
