This is Octavia St. Laurent Mizrahi. She is #BlackHistory and #BlackTransHistory.
This goddess was a key figure in the seminal Ballroom doc, “Paris Is Burning,” but she was so much more than that. A staple on the scene for years, walking Femme Queen Face and Realness. She left her greatest mark on community as an educator on identity and through HIV/AIDS advocacy. As you can see, she always kept the rest of the world in check.

This is The Lady Chablis. She is #BlackHistory and #BlackTransHistory.
As a decorated female impersonator (as they used to say) and showgirl, she entertained crowds for decades. She had her big international break after inspiring a character in author John Berendt’s best-selling novel, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, then starring as herself in the ‘97 film adaptation.
