Along with everyone we were saddened to hear about the passing of Carmen Vasquez. She was a warrior and stood on the frontlines of LGBTQ, social justice, immigration, reproductive justice, and sexual freedom movements. She was recently a previous GRIOT Circle Honoree in 2018. GRIOT Circle and the community mourns her transition.
