Johnson is a revelation! With meticulous research and a tender touch, Tourmaline brings this groundbreaking activist to life, revealing her brilliance, her humor, and her unwavering dedication to freedom and our collective humanity. We learn not only of Marsha''s pivotal role in the Stonewall Uprising, but also of the depth of her love for her chosen family and community, her fierce advocacy for Black trans lives, and the enduring power of her artistic spirit. This literary tribute, adorned in garlands and glitter, is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the true cost and the enduring legacy of an LGBTQIA+ icon''s fight for liberation." -- Janet Mock, author of the New York Times bestseller Redefining Realness "The depth of Tourmaline''s storytelling is historic, an enduring and urgent reminder from Marsha P. Johnson that history is not inevitable, it is made." -- Meena Harris, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling book Ambitious Girl " Tourmaline continues her practice of creativity as a revolutionary act, this time to illuminate the remarkable life of Marsha P. Johnson. Marsha''s story and Tourmaline''s unique voice blend seamlessly, in a narrative that will break your heart and put it back together again, leaving you better than when it found you. This is a book for our times, full of inspiration, community, truth and--at its core--radical love." -- Lena Dunham, actor, director, producer, and author of the #1 New York Times bestselling book Not That Kind of Girl "Finally! A full-fledged biography of trans icon Marsha P. Johnson that fleshes out the substance of a remarkable life too often reduced to a glib name-check. Tourmaline delivers the goods with a verve that will help all of us all pay Marsha some mind." -- Susan Stryker, author of Transgender History "Loving, beautiful, and honest, Marsha tells a story of jubilation fighting darkness, while revealing a vast world of queer, trans life that has always been there for those willing to see." -- Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Thelonious Monk and Freedom Dreams "Tourmaline''s Marsha is a book that''s teeming with life as much as heart. From Tourmaline''s prose, readers will see and understand Marsha as the human being behind all of her myths, someone flawed yet ambitious and headstrong. A page-turner with vibrant characters, dialogue, and most of all, crucial history." --Morgan Jerkins, author of the New York Times bestseller This Will Be My Undoing "In this forceful, passionate, and unique tribute to the legacy and life of Marsha P. Johnson, Tourmaline brings Marsha to life and changes our collective memories with this devoted preservation of the community, the grassroots, friendships, and the will of the Black transwoman individual. A celebration of every queer who willed her self-understanding into reality, told with love and alchemy." -- Sarah Schulman, author of The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity and Let the Record Show "Tourmaline succeeds in taking the iconic Marsha off the museum walls and reanimating her as a flesh-and-blood queer force of nature. Her street-level, tour de Times Square style of storytelling is irrepressibly engaging and a tribute worthy of the Stonewall queen herself." --Robert W. Fieseler, author of the Edgar-award winner Tinderbox "Illuminating... a poignant portrait of a figure whose "greater sense of freedom" still inspires." --Publishers Weekly , starred review "A well-researched biography... a warm homage to a pioneering artist." -- Kirkus, **One of Ms. Magazine's Most Anticipated Feminist Books of 2025** **One of The Mary Sue's 15 Most Anticipated LGBTQ Books of 2025** "This long-overdue biography of Marsha P.

Synopsis
'Thank god the revolution has begun, honey.' Rumour has it that after legendary Black transgender activist Marsha P. Johnson threw the first brick in the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, she picked up a shard of broken mirror to fix her make-up. This fearless moment embodies both the beauty and violence of the early LGBTQ+ rights movement - and the fabulous, tenacious charisma of Marsha herself. Yet despite the fact that Marsha's work as a gay liberation activist and drag queen helped spark the progress and continued protest we see today, there has been no definitive record of her life, loves, and lessons. Until now. Written with verve and sparkling prose, Black trans leader Tourmaline brings this iconic, scandalous, vital justice warrior to life in full colour for the first time. Through nearly two decades of research and unprecedented access, Tourmaline has become Marsha's leading archivist. This book will take readers into Marsha's childhood in New Jersey in the 1950s, to her dramatic and essential activism from the Stonewall Riots to the AIDS crisis, to her life creating radical art from the humblest means. Marsha was not just an activist - she was an artist and a performer, a lover and a mentor, a mischievous and transgressive queen. Her larger-than-life presence leaps out of every page. Adorned with her signature flower crown, she was a street fashion icon. She performed with RuPaul and with the internationally renowned drag performance troupe The Hot Peaches. She was muse to countless artists from Andy Warhol to the band Earth, Wind, and Fire. And she continues to inspire countless artists and activists today. Marsha didn't wait to be freed; she declared herself free and told the world to catch up. Marsha honours the fullness of her life and will give this remarkable figure her rightful place in history. Her story promises to inspire readers to live as their most liberated, unruly, vibrant, and whole selves., THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER Featured in The New York Times 's Nonfiction to Read This Spring Black transgender luminary Tourmaline brings to life the first definitive biography of the revolutionary activist Marsha P. Johnson, one of the most important and remarkable figures in LGBTQIA+ history, revealing her story, her impact, and her legacy. "She is the preeminent and foremost scholar on Marsha P. Johnson. . . . To us, Tourmaline is the expert."--Janet Mock, Allure "Thank god the revolution has begun, honey. " Rumor has it that after Marsha P. Johnson threw the first brick in the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, she picked up a shard of broken mirror to fix her makeup. Marsha, a legendary Black transgender activist, embodied both the beauty and the struggle of the early gay rights movement. Her work sparked the progress we see today, yet there has never been a definitive record of her life. Until now. Written with sparkling prose, Tourmaline's richly researched biography Marsha finally brings this iconic figure to life, in full color. We vividly meet Marsha as both an activist and artist: She performed with RuPaul and with the internationally renowned drag troupe The Hot Peaches. She was a muse to countless artists from Andy Warhol to the band Earth, Wind & Fire. And she continues to inspire people today. Marsha didn't wait to be freed; she declared herself free and told the world to catch up. Her story promises to inspire readers to live as their most liberated, unruly, vibrant, and whole selves.
