On October 12th 2023 UBC’s Department of French, Hispanic and Italian Studies will host a talk featuring project co-directors Paolo Frascà and Licia Canton, to explore the intersections of queerness and Italian-Canadian identity.
What are the experiences of LGBTQ+ Italian-Canadians? How have the traditional values of Italian-Canadian communities often led to the marginalization of their queer members? What are the contributions of queer Italian-Canadians to Italian-Canadian cultural and social life? Join us to reflect on these and more questions about the intersections of queer and migrant identities and how they can affect the creative process.
