Two-Spirit Pride Panel

This event will create space for Two-Spirit panelists to share about their identities, histories, and the complexities of navigating both Indigeneity and queerness in today’s world.

Through guided conversation, we’ll explore what Two-Spirit means and what inclusive Pride truly looks like when it centers Indigenous perspectives. Panelists will also reflect on their personal journeys, the power of community, and what meaningful allyship can look like within both Indigenous and 2SLGBTQIA+ spaces.

Whether you're a community member, ally, or someone seeking to learn and listen, this conversation offers an opportunity to deepen your understanding, challenge assumptions, and take steps toward more inclusive and culturally grounded forms of celebration and advocacy.
