Description

On May 17, we observed the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia. The focus was on breaking the silence – examining the many ways we must tell our stories, claim space, establish our voices, and ensure we are heard. As we celebrate PRIDE, this presentation will draw attention to the continued resistance needed in our educational spaces where so many of our 2SLGBTQ+ students remain invisible. In this talk, DR. ABC examines the ways we must work at being seen and heard.
