I have been honored with being featured for my DJ work on some great lists amongst really incredible women, but I don’t think many of those lists have ever included Black Trans Women who are killing the game! Since I have been obsessing over these 3 ladies, I thought I would share! Trust me when I say, you need to give a listen!

2. Juliana Huxtable
Huxtable was born on December 29, 1987 in Bryan-College Station, Texas. She describes her hometown as a typical “conservative Bible Belt town in Texas.” Born intersex, Huxtable began her transition after college. She notes that struggles with gender conformity and sex identity started earlier in life.
In 2010, Huxtable moved to New York to attend Bard College. She worked as legal assistant for the ACLU’s Racial Justice Program after college. Huxtable garnered a massive following on Tumblr, posting long stream-of-consciousness poems and self-portraits that experimented with fashion and Nuwaubian imagery. Soon after, Huxtable began DJ’ing and the rest is history!

Born in the Bronx and now residing in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jasmine Infiniti self-proclaims herself as “Queen of Hell herself”. Her West Oakland-based group, New World Dysorder, merges her East Coast style with the Bay Area LGBTQ Community.
