The Native American House and the Gender & Sexuality Resource Center at Illinois invite you to join us for programs and activities that highlight how Indigenous knowledge systems have long embraced expansive understandings of gender and sexuality, while celebrating the enduring presence of Indigiqueer and Two-Spirit communities.
Dr. Rosalyn LaPier, (Professor Illinois Department of History/Blackfeet Tribe of Montana/Métis)
will discuss how Indigenous people are threatened by anti-trans policies, which will result in individual suffering and the diminishing of Indigenous peoples’ rights to practice their own religions.
