2006 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

Priyank will edit and write for the second issue of Transgressions, a zine by and for people of color with non-conforming genders, i.e., people who are transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, intersex, two-spirit, butch, etc. This zine is a collection of different forms of artistic expression, ranging from personal narratives and political essays to photographs and drawings. As a Desi transgender person involved in racial justice work for the past 10 years, he created this zine as a way for trans people of color community history and current reality to be told, remembered, and honored. Since the long and powerful history of artistic resistance in trans people of color communities is often considered frivolous and unimportant due to racism, classism, and transphobia, there are very few resources for trans people of color to celebrate their work and express their lives. This zine will serve as a community-building tool, linking trans artists and creating a network of trans people of color artists for future collaboration.
