Frances Thompson a black trans woman Born into slavery around 1840, Thompson claimed Maryland as her birthplace. Enslaved by Robert Walker (or Wallace), a Virginia-born man, she moved to Memphis with her family as a child. 📚
She hung a sign above her door that read, “Madame Thompson, Fortune Teller” in red, green and yellow lettering.
In the late 1860s, she moved to a small home on Madison Avenue and took a new roommate, a young, chronically ill woman named Sallie Jordan. A few years later, she moved again to the northeast corner of Front Street and A.W. Willis Avenue, across from the old Shelby County Jail.
Frances Thompson, a disabled Black trans woman, was a skilled seamstress, dedicated activist, and Hoodoo practitioner in the late 19th century.
Do Y’all know about Frances Thompson? A formerly enslaved Black trans woman, she was one of the first trans women known to testify before the U.S. Congress. In 1866, she gave a powerful account of Memphis Massacre, detailing the racial & sexual violence committed by white mobs.📚
