Our History
The Minneapolis Black and Pink chapter was formed in the summer of 2021. Prior to this, we were the Midwest Trans Prisoner Pen Pal Project (MWTPPP) which started in 2011 as a support project for CeCe McDonald and other transgender, gender non-conforming prisoners in Minnesota. MWTPPP was formed to connect Midwest-based incarcerated trans/gender non-conforming people with other trans/gender non-conforming and allied community member pen pals for friendship. This project was initially launched to reach out to transgender prisoners who are placed in lock down (administrative segregation) but later accepted pen pal requests across the LGBTQI spectrum.
