Workshop: (Kohlberg, Scheuer Room), Swarthmore College
Peformance: (Olde Club)

2:00pm – “Love for EveryBODY” – Workshop with Bevin Branlandingham In a fatphobic society it is a radical act for anyone to love their body. This interactive, humorous and tender workshop provides a safe space for people of all body types, sizes, sexualities, gender expressions and abilities to explore learning to love your body as it is. Body liberation activism, Health at Every Size, and using movement and fashion to improve self-esteem will be discussed.(Kohlberg, Scheuer Room)
4:00pm – “To The Other Side of Dreaming: Building Home As Disabled Queer API Women of Color,” presentation by Mia Mingus and Stacey Milbern. (Kohlberg, Scheuer Room) We will talk about what it’s been like to move out of isolation and find each other, community, disability, and our experiences as an Korean adoptee and a Korean mixed race person.
9:00pm – Performance Night with Bevin Brandlandingham, the Lost Bois and DJ Shomi Noise (Olde Club)

We are a multiracial, multi-class, multi-gendered group of students who center desire in our organizing, strive to work from a place of hope/possibility rather than fear/despair, and at every level challenge static representations of identity that fail to reflect our lived experiences. This year’s symposium, entitled Envisioning Queer Futures, hopes to (re)imagine a future that is sex positive, where state sanctioned violence via prisons and borders no longer threatens our lives, where we can have a radical relationship with the land outside capitalist systems of production-consumption.
