Much like chosen family, chosen home is something we build through love, commitment, and the decision to keep showing up for one another. For more than 50 years, Anna has chosen Texas, and spent many of those years working to ensure Texas chooses all of us too.

As a cultural educator, artist, and organizer, Maxochitl uses storytelling to preserve histories that are too often erased and to make space for people living at the intersections of queer, trans, and Indigenous identities.

It is this work that carries forward the spirit of Monica Roberts: telling our own stories, refusing erasure, and making sure the people most often pushed to the margins are heard. We are thrilled to honor Maxochitl and celebrate their impactful work with this award. 💖
