At the end of the day LGBTQIA+ history and POC history are inherently intertwined, you cannot have one without the other. This presentation will trace the historical context and stories of QTBIPOC activism and highlight certain individuals from social movements in the past such as the Stonewall Riots, the Civil Rights Movement, and various others in the U.S., and current movements like Black Lives Matter. It is important that we know the history, that we know the names, that we continue to learn and educate ourselves for our futures and beyond.
Monday, August 10th at 6:00 PM | Decolonizing Gender and Sexuality: The Anti-Black Roots of Queerphobia
For LGBTQIA+ students, even a single supportive adult can transform their lives. We'll share some 'Ally 101' tips and give you a handy cheat-sheet version of the local and online resources you can use to help ensure LGBTQIA+ students are safe and supported in school, (even when it's distance-learning-school!)
Tuesday, August 11th at 6:00 PM | LGBTQIA+ Students Need Parents as Allies Too
Accepting LGBTQIA+ youth for who they say they are and supporting them and their needs are the responsibility of every adult in their lives. This is your chance to get your “How do I…?” and “What if she, wait no, he…?”  and “Why do they…?” questions answered by a real life queer adult!
Wednesday, August 12th at 6:00 PM | How to Be a Supportive Parent – From a Queer Adult
We are a team of four interdisciplinary undergraduate students at the University of Texas at Austin to develop an app-based curriculum for Indian healthcare providers to work more effectively with LGBTQ+ patients. We are collaborating with two Chennai-based NGOs, SAATHII and Nirangal. During this teach-in, we will share our current findings and discuss the importance of interdisciplinary, intersectional research about LGBTQ+ health. We will discuss the ways in which LGBTQ+ identities are lived and experienced in health settings. We will address the critical knowledge gaps in existing healthcare education about the needs of LGBTQ+ communities.You can read more about our project at: https://sites.utexas.edu/leapforhealth/
Friday, August 14th at 6:00 PM | Addressing LGBTQ+ Health Inequities in Chennai, South India through Mobile App Development
