Queer Now: Story as Antidote
Come join the creative resistance and explore how queer storytelling as a cultural strategy visions better futures. During this 2.5-hour online convening, we will equip ourselves with a shared understanding about the rise of the global anti-gender movement, and learn about its roots, its funding, influence on culture and politics, and importantly, understand its weaknesses. Join us to build shared strategies, spark creative ideas, and amplify the bold, beautiful stories being told by and about queer communities around the world. Bringing solidarity, strength and a celebration of our multitudes.
Registration is required and will remain open until July 14th, 2025 at 11:59pm PST.
