Decolonizing our Understanding of 2SQT Communities: Why Intersectionality Matters Virtual Workshop Webinar
Prior to European colonization, 2-Spirit, Queer and Trans (2SQT) communities were historically celebrated and venerated across the world. This workshop provided an overview of this history, why and how decolonization matters in our provision of support for 2-SQT/LGBTQ+ communities and how the praxis of intersectionality can help us reclaim 2SQT/LGBTQ+ inclusive and liberation-based communities and support. Participants also gained introductory knowledge on gender and sexuality development and an understanding of basic 2SQT+ terminology.
