With an undeniable sense of confidence that can only come from decades of bolstered courage and self-validation, actress Erika Ervin, who is also professionally and belovedly known as Amazon Eve, graced a stage in Turlock, a city she fled out of fear more than three decades ago. The reason Ervin left Turlock all those years ago is because she is transgender, meaning that her gender identity differs from the sex she was assigned at birth. On Tuesday, however, Ervin was welcomed back by students and community members in the Turlock High School Performing Arts Building during an event hosted by the school’s Gay Straight Alliance.
