Monica Beverly Hillz Instagram – This weekend members of @kctransformations team @merriquej @_slightlyjaded and I had the pleasure to attend & judge & perform Utopia Washington’s annual Miss Island Goddess Pageant & Gala. Utopia is a queer and trans people of color-led, grassroots organization born out of the struggles, challenges, strength, and resilience of the Queer and Trans Pacific Islander (QTPI – “Q-T-pie”) communities. Their services are vital, including making healthcare, food and basic life saving support free and accessible to community.
It was beautiful to see so many of our mahu, fa’afafine and transgender sisters compete in this pageant, including the beautiful @evve_fine Everly and Tepa from Transformations’ Liberation Camp.
We are proud @kctransformations to have sponsored a table to help support the important work of Utopia, and see so many of our sisters in action doing their thing, including @tafmae @ms_amasai @jackie_omelly @tw33tie15 @dfatuesi and so many more!
Congratulations to @tepavaina Tepatasi Amanaʻiamaiʻita Vaina, Utopia Washington’s Health Director and the new Miss Island Goddess 2024z 👑 Thank you all @utopia_wa especially the founder & executive director @tafmae for having myself and @kctransformations we had a great time 💕 | Posted on 09/Apr/2024 00:39:22
