What role do gender and sexuality play in the lives of people who experience intersectional entanglements? How do gender and sexuality relate to migration, racism, classism, and sexism? In the days we live in, what is Black love and what does VerTrauen vs REVOLution mean? Are gender and sexuality a part of our identities or rather an institutionalised system? Would a queer feminist perspective help? Asmaa Sbou and guests talk, discuss, and dream together of a way to love in our community.
