Pride and The Power Of Being Seen w/ Dr. Sirry Alang

The Bees are joined by Dr. Sirry Alang, a health services researcher and medical sociologist, to talk about attitudes towards LGBTQ people in the Cameroonian community and beyond. Sirry shares her personal journey from growing up in Bamenda to becoming a prominent academic in the U.S. She shares her experience coming out as gay to her family and friends, and gives examples of what it means to be truly accepting and affirming. We discuss the way forward in having difficult conversations about homophobia, and how to create safe spaces for queer people in our communities.
