INTENSIVE: Lost & Found - Leather as a Gateway to Cultural Reclamation

Thursday March 20, 2025 1:00pm - 4:00pm CDT

This seminar seeks to explore Leather History through a different perspective while taking a walk through Japanese American Tragedy, internment, silencing, and generational trauma. Leather is not only important to identity and sexual rebellion, but also in reclaiming our stories and historical roots as a means of healing and liberating our voices to build the representation we seek in our own communities. Following the presentation, we will have a casual fireside forum with featured guests.
