One of our little known programs is our Post-Incarceration Support Program. We connect with Black trans women in prison & jails, and provide financial support upon their release.

A huge shoutout to Skylar, a Black trans woman we’ve been working with over the last few years who was finally released this month! 🙌🏽

Here’s a piece “On Abolition” that she wrote while incarcerated published in our (2022) Newsletter

Full piece: https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1ClUB65iONH-gD1O8lYCucY4ncUMfkIW9/mobilebasic

We also help set up penpals, ship books, & send commissary. 📚 ✍️ Know an incarcerated Black trans woman? Email us to connect us.

The U.S. government is really trying to convince you that transgender people & immigrants are the reason why 41+ million Americans are being left to go hungry this November…

“The well has run dry” for SNAP recipients - but there is always more money for cops, ICE, and genocide…

Please don’t let them fool you with this.

Rest in power, Miss Major. 🕊️ Your legacy lives on through all of us fighting for a better world for our trans siblings. ✊🏽🌍❤️

It is with profound sadness that House of gg announces the passing of our beloved leader and revolutionary figure in the TLGBQ liberation movement, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy. Miss Major, 78, passed away on October 13, 2025 in the comfort of her home and surrounded by loved ones in Little Rock, Arkansas. Her enduring legacy is a testament to her resilience, activism, and dedication to creating safe spaces for Black trans communities and all trans people–we are eternally grateful for Miss Major’s life, her contributions and how deeply she poured into those she loved.

Miss Major–known as ‘Mama’ to many–was a Black, trans activist who fought for more than fifty years for trans, gender nonconforming, and LGB community– especially for Black trans women, trans women of color and those who have survived incarceration and police brutality. Major’s fierce commitment and intersectional approach to justice brought her to care directly for people with HIV/AIDS in New York in the early 1980s, and later to drive San Francisco’s first mobile needle exchange. As director of the TGI Justice Project, she’d return to prisons as a mentor to her ‘gurls’ inside. In 2019, she would be powerfully guided by spirit and her vision in search of a family gathering property. House of gg was born out of her dream to build a center that would empower, heal and be a safe haven for Black trans people and movement leaders in the Southern US–a space for our community to take a break, swim, enjoy good food, laugh, listen to music, watch movies, and recharge for the ongoing fight for our lives.

Miss Major fought tirelessly for her people, her love as vast and enduring as the universe she knew herself to be a part of. She was a world builder, a visionary, and unwavering in her devotion to making freedom possible for Black, trans, formerly and currently incarcerated people as well as the larger trans and LGB community. Because of her, countless new possibilities have been made for all of us to thrive—today and for generations to come. (Continued in comments)
