Upcoming Events

Sunday, Oct 6, 1:30-4:00PM

Join us for an anti-racism workshop supporting queer API's in addressing anti-Blackness within their intimate circles, both holding tension and celebrating historical ties between queer API, Brown and Black folks.


The event will be held on Sunday, October 6th, from 1:30 to 4 p.m. with two breaks. This event is predominantly for POC's.

Saturday, Oct 12, 3:00-5:00PM

Join us for a screening of the film, followed by a short panel discussion with KQT DC members. 

Coming to You (2021)  is a powerful, groundbreaking documentary film about two women confronting bigotry and redefining their relationship with their gay and transgender (adult) kids, made by a filmmaker working with the acclaimed queer feminist film collective, PINKS (연분홍치마). The film thoughtfully represents the work of PFLAG Korea (Parents and Families of LGBTAIQ People in Korea), an important chapter in LGBTQ activism in South Korea and beyond.
