"American photographer and LGBT advocate Mariette Pathy Allen has unveiled TransCuba, an exhibit that documents the newly accepted — and flourishing — transgender culture in Cuba.

"There's a parallel between the opening up politically of Cuba with the gradual improvement and treatment for the LGBT world," said Allen, whose work is being displayed through Nov. 28 at Yeelen Gallery in Little Haiti."
