Trans Queer Youth New Orleans: Coneflower, 5000 (@transqueeryouth.nola)
Culture Bearer Implementation Grant
Coneflower is a participatory documentation project designed to archive and uplift the mutual aid and creative resistance of queer and trans youth in south Louisiana. \Trans Queer Youth of New Orleans is a youth-led community organization that has autonomously organized workshops, gathering spaces, vigils and community care using the tools laid out by generations of southern queer organizers. The work of TQY speaks for itself, however few are able to witness the magic of this intimate community besides those who volunteer to support the youth vision. Coneflower seeks to make publicly accessible the impact of the work through photo story.
