The Hunky Jesus Contest returned to Mission Dolores Park this Easter Sunday, celebrating trans joy and inclusivity with the theme 'No Easter Without the T'. Wild West Jesus, the winner, embodied love and acceptance, emphasizing the core Christian values of caring for neighbors and immigrants. The contest featured a diverse range of interpretations of Jesus, including commentary on social issues like food security and cultural critiques reflecting on the current socio-political climate. The event highlights the unique blend of celebration and activism characteristic of San Francisco.
This year’s theme - 'No Easter Without the T' - paid tribute to trans joy, protest, and performance as only San Francisco can.
In a year where religion has once again been weaponized, Wild West Jesus offered a radically welcoming resurrection of values centered on care, not condemnation.
