The induction ceremony for Drag Star Jiggly Caliente alongside her fellow inductees, who are also key trans figures who have sadly passed away, will take place on the 26th June prior to New York Pride.<\/p>\n

Cathy Renna, the communications director of the National LGBTQ Task Force stated: “This year\u2019s focus on transgender trailblazers and changemakers underscores the importance of recognizing our history and the current climate for our trans siblings. ”<\/p>\n

She continued: “As we continue to fiercely battle against attacks on our trans and nonbinary communities, we are honored to uplift their legacies.<\/p>\n

“Their courage inspires our ongoing fight for liberation, both within the task force family and across every queer advocacy organisation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nicole Murray Ramirez, founder of the Wall of Honour, added: \u201cIn these times, when there are radical and extreme campaigns trying to erase our transgender community, the Imperial Courts and task force are reminding us all that transgender people have not only always been here, but have also been some of our community\u2019s most dedicated activists and leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n
