Queer Latino Student Panel Mon 11/23 5:30pm

El PAIS, the Queer Latino student organization on campus, is cordially inviting you to attend our panel on the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Transexual) Latin American Community on campus.

WHEN: The panel will be on Monday, November 23rd
from 5:30 to 6:30 in the Pacifica Room (top level of the Student Union).

El PAIS stands for “Estudiantes Latinos y el Proyecto Arco Iris,” which translates to “Latino Students and Project Rainbow.” Our Mission Statement is, “To unite the LGBTQQIA (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer, Questioning, Intersexed, Ally) Latino community at SJSU and to spread awareness of Queer Latino identities to the campus community, including awareness of the issues that affect LGBTQQIA Latinos.” We will be hosting this event in order to inform the campus community of the diverse experiences of LGBT Latino students, whose lives and identities are often affected by a web of gender, class, and ethnic norms. Most importantly, we want to share how Latino Students on the campus embrace their LGBT identity.

So come support us! We welcome faculty, staff, and students who identify with the LGBT community, support the community as allies, or want to know more about LGBT Latino identities and issues. Please spread the word and let anybody know who may be interested.
