Show your devotion to the “Saint of Christopher Street,” Marsha “Pay it no mind” Johnson, the Patron Saint of chosen family, advocates, and the vigilant, with our novelty Marsha P Johnson candle. While the accounts of her role at Stonewall in 1969 vary, one thing is clear, this LGBTQIA+ icon was on the front lines of the resistance! Her status among the community is fueled, in part, by her involvement in the historic Stonewall riots, but also by her advocacy for those effected by AIDS and gay and transgender rights- particularly homeless youth in her work as a founder of STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries). Part of our Secular Saint candle collection dedicated to cultural icons you can believe in!  Each candle is designed to look like a traditional prayer candle featuring colorful artwork of the “Saint’s” image on the front.  The back of each secular saint candle shows the patronage of the saint, reveals the saint’s day, and includes a unique (and often humorous) prayer that is intended to both inspire and enlighten.  The Saint Marsha P Johnson candle is one of multiple styles available.  Approximately 8″ high.  Sold individually.
