Collections by Michelle Brown

Emme Zanotti moved from Michigan’s city on the bay, Bay City, to southeast Michigan stepping out and stepping up as a DE&I specialist, community advocate, and political activist. After reaching out to Stand For Trans as a resource and to connect with others in the Transgender community she went on to serve as the board treasurer for many years. She more recently became engaged in politics where her efforts helped flip two key congressional seats in Michigan’s 2018 elections. She currently serves as third vice chair of the Michigan Democratic Party’s LGBT&A Caucus. A big leap forward for transgender representation in the heart of progressive politics in Michigan. She was recognized for her work by making The Race Relations Task Force of Birmingham’s Diversity Honor Roll and her political efforts and rigor helped flip key congressional seats in Michigan’s 2018 elections, resulting in her being honored by the Human Rights Campaign, as the state of Michigan’s sole awardee for political action at their annual equality convention.
