The IBPOC Network and 2SLGBTQIA+ Network are excited to join together to offer a book & media club this winter season! Beyond the Margins seeks to create a supportive intersectional space focused on community building in the arts, culture, and heritage sector. This growth-oriented network provides a space to learn from one another and build solidarity amongst queer and IBPOC folks through the exploration of diverse media.

For the first season of Beyond the Margins, we will be discussing media focused on the theme of "intersectional joy". Our first full session on January 8th will be a discussion of the Sher Vancouver Podcast Season 3, Episode 4: Norma Lize: Trans Activist and Refugee Advocate. Stay tuned for the announcement of media for February and March! 

Feel free to come for one session, or join us for them all! Haven't had a chance to listen/read the media? You are always welcome to still join us for conversation! 

We are continually exploring ways to make this club as accessible as possible, so you are interested in joining but concerned about accessibility, please get in touch with our coordinators at 250-356-5700, or bcma@museum.bc.ca. Our coordinators are open to recording voice notes of written text, visually describing video or images, and other ways to help everyone engage with the media.

Hosting joint network events is intended as a way to celebrate and hold space for intersectionalities of identity and fill gaps in this type of programming – all who identify as IBPOC and/or 2SLGBTQIA+ are welcome!
