This podcast series features a collection of interviews conversations with queer & trans people in South & Southeast Asia around the importance of local perspective understanding non-normative sexualities and gender/queer in some Asian societies. The discussions also emphasize subjectivity, space, historical perspective, related power dynamics and agency as they are negotiated and navigated in the selected locations of Asia. A de-colonial frame will emphasize that race, ethnicity, caste, class, indigeneity informs the understanding of gender and sexed bodies in these societies.
