Mind the Gap: Queer perspectives across cultures and generations

The meaning of pride appears to be different across various cultural platforms and familial makeup. When freedom is expressed and walls have been put down, the choice to gender identity becomes limitless. Paul, an LGBTQ+ Filipino worker, meets with Pote, an LGBTQ+ Thai university student, to discuss their differing cultures and generation gap that sets them apart. Although being brought up in separate countries, the two share a common agreement on queer journey.


Special guests:
👤 Paul Payawan, Operations Transformation Specialist
👤 Tevit Smakul (Pote), Sophomore & Part-time tutor
