Help donate during covid-19

The funding provided will help support the creative vision for my upcoming studio album. Your contributions will continue to help me access producers for mixing and mastering, graphic artists for visual promotion and most importantly video content to make my work more accessible to people of different abilities. These funds will allow me the autonomy to hire other TGNC artists and dancers. Help us keep Black Trans Art alive through for younger generations to come. Helping this work prosper will help support the leadership and unique voices for trans communities across the world. As the presence of this virus has grown, spaces for the artist have declined. The voices of black transgender artists are necessary, especially during these uncertain times. Help us continue to find the words or ways to say the things many may find too difficult to say. Help us to create the content to continue to have the difficult conversations. Allow our innovation to continue igniting change and re-imagination in the world you see around you. Help us continue to help you.

The House of LaBeija is the oldest and most revered house in New York’s drag and ballroom scene, where members of competing houses walk the runway and vogue battle in glamorous looks, posing the house down for a roaring audience that celebrates the freedom of expression, femininity, and queerness. The house was founded in 1977 by legendary queen Crystal LaBeija, who wanted to foster an environment in which her black and brown sisters could live their truth and didn’t have to lighten their faces with makeup to fit into a discriminatory standard of beauty; it rose to more mainstream fame in the ’80s and ’90s after being featured in Jennie Livingston’s Paris Is Burning....
