What does it mean to celebrate freedom in a country where so many are still fighting for it? This July 4th, HIGHKEY! welcomes legendary activist, filmmaker, and author Tourmaline for a conversation that reclaims joy, protest, and the radical legacy of Marsha P. Johnson. The hosts unpack Black queer history, trans resistance, and the messy truth about who gets remembered—and who gets erased. Tourmaline shares what she’s learned from elders like Miss Major and Marsha, and why dreaming big is not a luxury, but a survival strategy. Come for the queer history lesson, stay for the nail art, revenge fantasies, and glitter-fueled joy that fuels our fight.
