Voces Taínes LGBT2S

Presentation language: Spanish/English with Spanish/English subtitles

About the presentation:
Kiwari Taino Ahuiki'no (Queer Taino Voices), a project by Ra Jikotea Niaku'no (Ra Ruiz León) began as an effort to document the life stories of Queer Taino folks. In this panel discussion, we will be in conversation with several LGBT2s members of our community who will share their stories. We will also discuss the significance of past Kiwari Taino Ahuiki'no events. The panelists and host will take questions from the audience at the end.
