i2i Presents: Story of My Pride

2i: Asian Pacific Islander Pride of Chicago presents STORY OF MY PRIDE, an interactive event for exploring the powerful intersection of LGBTQ and Asian/Pacific Islander identities. Will Tutol & Ryan Viloria are co-presenting the discussion on Saturday, Aug. 13 at 7pm at Asian Human Services in Uptown, 4753 N. Broadway. This free special event invites and showcases speakers from the LGBTQ-API community to share and is organized by i2i, a queer Asian group in Chicago. Please bring a first-hand written account less than five minutes in length about what makes you proud in your LGBTQ-API life. Stories can discuss a diverse range of experiences, such as a moment of self-discovery, coming-out stories, finding like-minded friends, does being a double minority mean double happiness, and more. Interested people who do not wish to share a story are encouraged to listen and contribute to the discussion of other participants’ stories. While speakers themselves are restricted to those of LGBTQ-API identity, the event is open to friends, loved ones, and allies. Dinner munchies will be served, but space is limited. Please RSVP at rvilor2@gmail.com. Please indicate if you would like to share or simply attend, and if you plan to bring a guest.
