Did you know this iconic ska silhouette is a trans woman and ska singer named Brigitte Bond? The English Beat were inspired to draw her from a photo of her dancing with Prince Buster and it ended up being the inspiration for the now iconic “Rude Girl” silhouette.

️⚧️Update: Apparently my post has gone so viral that the woman who dug up the research reached out to thank me and ask if I could post her documentary on Brigitte which is so good!!!! Joanna Wallace I am so honored to post this, thank you so much for sharing a story of ours that was lost to history, please watch it if you haven’t
