[6/3 edit, class is full!]💖hi! Queer and Trans Asian Pacific Islanders hold intersecting identities that make us susceptible to violence and discrimination in many forms. With anti-trans legislation being adopted across the country and with anti-Asian violence still rising, we’re here to show the resilience of QTAPI and to continue the historic trend of queer people of color leading community based solutions to issues that arise within our communities. 💖🌈💕🫶🏻🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💖💕 📢Self-Defense Class and Queer Kick Back for QTAPI! 🗓Sunday, June 12th ⏰2PM - 4PM 📍55 Chrystie Street, New York, NY 10002 📲RSVP required thru bio We will also provide pepper spray and personal alarms for registered participants!
