The modern LGBTQ+ rights movement was largely forged through the leadership and activism of transgender individuals, particularly trans women of color. Before the late 20th century, spaces for gender-nonconforming people and sexual minorities were heavily criminalized. Police raids on gay and trans bars were common occurrences in urban centers.

Many famous drag queens (e.g., Monica Beverly Hillz, Peppermint) came out as trans women, forcing the drag world to confront its own biases. Simultaneously, trans-masculine and non-binary performers are redefining what "queer performance" looks like, moving away from campy imitation toward raw, autobiographical expression.
