What happens when queer strangers dine together? pt. 1

Описание: In this intimate dinner conversation, six queer individuals gather as strangers to explore what it means to build community in uncertain times.

Host Lia brings together Julie, Gab, SJ, Leah, and April for an evening of vulnerability and connection.
The group discusses the challenges of making friends as adults, the courage it takes to step outside comfort zones, and why queer spaces matter now more than ever. Personal stories emerge about coming out later in life, the internal fear that held them back even in supportive environments, and the transformative power of finally living authentically.

Key themes include:
→ The difficulty of building community post-pandemic
→ Navigating comfort zones: from dining alone to meeting strangers
→ Baltimore's changing queer landscape as spaces close
→ The profound relief and clarity that comes with coming out
→ Why representation matters in teaching and beyond
