Fae Johnstone speaks about how we can find our own authenticity and how that might inspire others to be proud of themselves.
Queer and trans people must often make themselves small for the comfort of others. Far from a unique phenomenal, many transfolk have likely held back parts of themselves because of safety concerns, discrimination and social norms. In the spirit of Pride, Fae’s talk will highlight the creative power of queer and trans communities, and explore what we can learn from queer liberation, to help all of us walk with pride in who we are.
