A discussion about what is at stake in the performance of realness and the practice of passing, and how they are both acts of survival and resistance.
Ian and Gil will host a discussion on the Argument project’s social and political commentaries, and with you try and maybe think through whether and how they might still have some currency today: what’s changed and what’s stayed the same?
