Proud Possibilities
The term "possibility model" was suggested by actress and trans activist Laverne Cox, who said she didn't want to be a role model, she preferred the term “possibility model”. So when Desi Rainbow Parents & Allies decided to feature conversations with LGBTQ+ people who are building relationships, families, communities, we called the program "Proud Possibilities." While we certainly believe the people featured are possibility models for the LGBTQ+ community, our purpose is to show parents and allies of Desi LGBTQ+ kids that there are many possibility models for our children's future.
Desi Rainbow is excited to bring you a new season of Proud Possibilites in the Fall of 2022!
On October 30, 2022, join Dr. Ruth Vanita, an Indian academic, activist and author who has pioneered research and writing on same sex love in India.
Registration is required to attend the live event, and attendees will be admitted on a first come, first served basis. We will also stream the interview (but not the live Q&A) on our facebook page.
Meanwhile, watch our inspirational interviews from Proud Possibilities since 2020, all complied on our YouTube channel.
