Queer South Asians have always been here! This presentation shall look back to explore the history of the Queer South Asian experience, highlighting key icons and their stories. We shall then look to current key icons and reflect on what the future holds. Be prepared for stereotypes to be broken, to listen to amazing poetry and to be introduced to some amazing icons!
