After the screening, hear from Meryem Benslimane, 缅北强奸鈥檚 Equity Education Advisor and other community members on how the film鈥檚 synopsis can reflect the lived realities of our 缅北强奸 students. Discussions and talking points will focus on the process of coming out, identity, what denial, rejection and unacceptance can look and feel like for Black and LGBQTQI2+ students. We will also explore what happens when established beliefs about gender/hetero roles are challenged and how we can create safer more inclusive spaces for everyone at 缅北强奸 - pointing to support resources in our community. Finally, we hope to touch upon the topic of sexual communication to challenge stigmas and taboos when addressing non-normative sexual relationships. Snacks will be provided!
