In this episode, we explore the extraordinary life and mysterious death of LGBTQ+ icon Marsha P. Johnson. A fearless activist and central figure in the Stonewall uprising, Marsha’s untimely and suspicious death in 1992 was initially ruled a suicide—despite troubling evidence. We revisit her legacy, investigate overlooked details, and discuss a lot of "crimes" that should have never been.  Support us on Patreon!  Donate to The Marsha P.
