Episode 5: Leila Haile and Maya Vivas

In this week's episode, we speak with Leila and Haile and Maya Vivas, co-directors of Ori Gallery. Ori is a brand new gallery that seeks to amplify the voices of trans and queer artists of color in Portland, Oregon. (CW: assault at 9:00 and 33:00) Topics include:

  • Queerness and Afro-Queerness as a gender, sexual, and political identity
  • Racism and transphobia in the medical industrial complex
  • Navigating queer spaces as a Black, trans, disabled human
  • Coming into a non-binary identity through an African identity
  • Creating a truly accessible art gallery
