Event Description

*THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED*

In-person

Often when discussing the representations and realities of Two-Spirit and Indigiqueer (2SIQ) people, there is a focus on the history and attempted erasure of gender and sexual diversity within Indigenous communities. However, that attempt was not successful. While we have been left with complexities to address and untangle, the stories and kinship practices have not only survived they have flourished anew. Join us for this session as we explore where we have been and shift our focus into contemporary spaces and embodiments of queer Indigenous joy and surthrivance.
