"About the quilt: The Norfolk Trans Joy Community Quilt consists of individual squares crafted by trans, nonbinary, gender non-conforming people and trusted allies, expressing personal forms of joy relating to the trans experience. Initiated, organised and crafted by Norwich-based artists and activists Beau Brannick and Alice Bigsby-Bye, this community quilt responds to the onslaught of biased media, dangerous politics, and the rise in hate crimes against transgender people close to home and further afield."--From publisher's website.
