Read about Sylvia Rivera, who is among the most groundbreaking,
iconic Hispanic and Latinx heroes who have shaped our culture and
the world in Hispanic Star: Sylvia Rivera, co-written with J. Gia
Loving, from Claudia Romo Edelman's gripping Hispanic Star
biography series for young readers. Meet Stonewall uprising veteran
Sylvia Rivera--once just a kid from New York City. A transgender
Latina, Sylvia became an influential gay liberation and transgender
rights activist who fought especially for transgender people of
color. In the 1970s, Sylvia and Marsha P. Johnson founded the
Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR), a group devoted
to providing services and advocacy for homeless LGBTQ+ people.
Nearly two decades after her passing, Sylvia and her legacy
continue to have an impact on the LGBTQ+ rights movement and remain
an inspiration for marginalized queer people everywhere. Hispanic
Star proudly celebrates Hispanic and Latinx heroes who have made
remarkable contributions to American culture and have been
undeniable forces in shaping its future. If you can see it, you can
be it.
