Being an Asexual and Aromantic Ally: You Can’t Fix What’s Not Broken
Asexual and aromantic people are members of the LGBTQ+ community whose stories are often left unexplored. In this session, participants will learn more about people who are asexual and aromantic, how their experiences differ from those of allosexual and alloromantic people, and how we can all be better allies that create space that is not only inclusive, but also affirming. No matter how you identify, this session will help you serve as an active ally.
