Join the San Diego DREAM Team and Canvass for a Cause for a local discussion on UNDOCUQUEER, the real story of queer immigrants here in San Diego.

How are the stories of coming out as queer and coming out as undocumented similar? How are they different? What are factors that make it hard to organize here in San Diego, and how do we face that challenge? How does this affect families? And what would TRUE queer-inclusive immigration reform look like? Join us at El Centro Cultural de la Raza to hear some answers and continue building the movement!

WHY DO WE USE THE WORD QUEER?
Although originally used as a slur and offensive word, QUEER has since been reclaimed by the LGBTQIA community. It represents being outside of the heteronormative mindset or the gender binary. It is often seen as an umbrella term for those who do not identify as "straight" or "cisgender," including pansexual, bisexual, gender queer and other sexualities and identities.

Únase con el San Diego DREAM Team y Canvass for a Cause para una discusión local sobre UNDOCUQUEER, la verdadera historia de los inmigrantes queer aquí en San Diego.

¿Como son las historias de saliendo del closet y de saliendo como indocumentado similar? ¿Como son las historias diferentes? ¿Cuáles son factores que hacen difícil la organizacion aquí en San Diego, y cómo nos enfrentamos a este desafío? ¿Cómo afecta a las familias? ¿Y qué sería el verdadero LGBT-incluido reforma migratoria? ¡Únase con nosotros en El Centro Cultural de la Raza para escuchar algunas respuestas y continuar construyendo el movimiento!

¿POR QUE USAMOS LA PALABRA "QUEER"?
Aunque originalmente utilizado como un insulto y una palabra ofensiva, QUEER ya que ha sido reclamado por la comunidad LGBTQIA. Representa estar fuera de la mentalidad heteronormative o el binario de género. Se ve a menudo como un término general para aquellos que no se identifican como "recta" o "cisgénero", incluyendo pansexual, bisexuales, no conformista a base de género y otras sexualidads y identidades.
