Come and hear Qanianglis and Norma Lize speak about ways in which they’ve sought equity and solidarity for LGBTQ1IA+ folks. Qaniaglis (she) is a young Indigenous trans woman who is a working professional and consultant with two undergraduate degrees in First Nations studies. Before she gets their 3rd degree, Qani feels as though they need to heal from institutional harm that presented itself during her time studying, working and organizing at UBC. Norma is a transgender activist and advocate from the Middle East. Her activism started when she was studying journalism and communication arts which led to her involvement with the LGBTQIA2S+ organizations in the SWANA region and around the world.
