Welcome, neighbour, to our gaybourhood.
Listen to Episode One of In Our Gaybourhood
QAF’s first-ever podcast, In Our Gaybourhood is a journey through the communities of BC, meeting our neighbours who work towards a world where everyone can be proud of who they are. In its first season, we get to know some of the 2SLGBTQIA+ advocates, educators, and students who help our schools grow into spaces where everyone can belong. Just like our neighbourhoods, each podcast episode is filled with the spirit of care, the energy of activism, and the warmth of community. Hosted by artist, activist and educator JC Fung 思慧, In Our Gaybourhood premieres online on June 14.
