At the Crossroads!- Grace Banu
Workshop
3.5 hrs
August 18, 2019 2:00 pm Sunday
Are we just queer? Is sexual and gender identity and expression the only problem that we face in the society? When caste and religious identities are detrimental to our identity, how does it complicate our queer lives? And the movement?
Grace Banu is Dalit transgender activist and writer from Tamilnadu. She was the first transgender person to be admitted to engineering college in her state.
