Join us as we cover topics like the differences between gender and sexuality; gender identity, sexual orientation, and spiritual identity; the history of Two Spirit+ people in our Nations, including the traditional roles and responsibilities held in community and society; the impacts of colonization on ways of life and being, and the effects of patriarchy, racism, heteronormativity, and cisnormativity. This is a space that welcomes questions from a place of curiosity and kindness — you can submit questions to be addressed in the session to Sarah.Whelan@coo.org.
