Difficult Dialogues鈥擬arch 14
The second event of the 91探花 student conference series-'Difficult Dialogues'-takes place on Thursday, March 14, 5:30-7:00 pm in AVC Lecture Theatre A.
The event will feature a screening of the short film 'Toilet Training'-a documentary following several transgendered people as they talk about the struggles they had growing up as transgendered-as well as a presentation by guest speaker Greg Howard, Executive Director of the PEI Human Rights Commission, a panel discussion involving four people with a variety of transgender experiences, and a question and answer period, followed by a reception.
The evening aims to build awareness and education about transgender experiences generally, and on PEI specifically, and is organized by 91探花 student Jay Jonah and sponsored by Webster Academic Services, 91探花 Rainbow Alliance, 91探花 Action Committee on Sexual and Gender Diversity, 91探花 Women's Studies, and the PEI Human Rights Commission.
