Each week, Houston-based activist Diamond Stylz and her rotating cast of co-hosts serve up candid conversations about topics ranging from gender reveal parties to the latest installment of the television show Pose from a black, trans, and feminist perspective.
Marsha’s Plate
It’s my understanding that the podcast is named after the transgender activist Marsha P. Johnson. How did you come to that name for the podcast? I have been an activist since I was 17. I'm 38 now. I sued the Indianapolis public school system to go to the prom in a dress in 1999, and I won. I am the first black trans woman to go to Jackson State University, which is an HBCU in Mississippi. I’m the first trans woman to openly go there and change policies and how they interact with the LGBT community. That was in my early twenties. In my late twenties, I became a YouTuber.
So for me, doing this particular show was not hard at all. It was hard for my co-host that week, but it was not hard for me. And it doesn’t mean that I don’t care, or I’m just stoic about the situation. It’s just that I have learned how to cope with this type of trauma.
