A painting of a fair-haired man in a purple suit, a negative-image female figure behind him (clearly a painting of the trick photo sold of him at the time he was in Kew Asylum). The background is a huge Pride flag. Part of a new mural of Edward de Lacy Evans, a trans man hounded by the press (including the Bendigo Advertiser) in 1879. Picture: TOM O'CALLAGHAN. From a 2023 article in the Bendigo Advertiser, entitled, 'This newspaper helped destroy life of trans man Edward de Lacy Evans', by Tom O'Callaghan
Evans died in Melbourne Immigrants Home in 1901, still under his deadname & forced to wear dresses.
2006 AQA #QueerHistory walk described him as "passing herself off as a man"

That night at the Rainbow Room, I left a flowing, ankle-length white cashmere coat in the cloakroom. My fingers sparkled with jeweled rings. The young man who handed me my check ticket gave me the look that said he was family, a Friend of Dorothy.

🌈 Queer Figure — Happy Birthday Janis Ian (b. 1951)
Before it was cool to be vulnerable in music, Janis Ian was out here wrecking us emotionally with At 17. Later came out as a lesbian and never stopped being a voice for outsiders, weirdos, & the beautifully different.
