All proceeds will go directly to the Creme de la Creme House of Fame Foundation in support of their efforts to open a second trans safe house in Imo State, Nigeria.
Creme de la Creme has already successfully opened two safe houses in other parts of Nigeria (Abuja and Lagos). These safe houses provide security, healthcare support, and training and education to our trans siblings there.
The Black Queer Book Club is a community-led collective and safe space based in Ireland created by black queer people for black queer people to read, discuss and grow in a friendly and supportive community. They explain, “This is a space where our narratives are given due consideration. Oh…and we read books and sometimes kiki together at events.”
The Small Trans Library is an autonomous trans lending library and community support service operating in Dublin and Glasgow. They have a small lending library of physical books and run events, reading clubs and a mutual aid fund for struggling trans people on the island of Ireland
This event has been made possible with incredible support from TENI, Dublin Pride, and the SPICE project which is also run by The Irish Museum of Modern Art.
