*****THIS IS A QTBIPOC-CENTRED SPACE

For those who don’t identify as black, indigenous, or people of colour, we know you’re excited about New Ho Queen but please remember that this space was born out of a need. There are very few spaces for queer and trans people of colour, especially spaces where Asians can feel celebrated.

In order to centre bipoc, we ask that allies please arrive with the folx you came to support and centre. To come into this space means to be asked to show up and act in allyship — especially for those who don’t identify as bipoc.

Please hold each other accountable for your behavior in this space. It is our priority to ensure the space is safer and inclusive of bipoc. If at any point oppressive behaviour and/or language is witnessed or reported, those people will be asked to leave.
