What does it mean to be seen, to be heard, to be uplifted?
Join us for the second gathering in the Eastside Pathways Wisdom Series, a bi-monthly space for film, dialogue, and collective reflection around identity, race, and belonging in East King County.

This session’s theme—“We Don’t Talk About It”—centers the intersectional experiences of LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, and the silence that often surrounds these truths in our region.

🎬 We’ll be screening Disclosure, a groundbreaking documentary that examines how transgender people have been represented in media—and the real-life impacts of those portrayals.

After the film, we’ll hear from local organizations that support queer, trans, and LGBTQIA+ young people. This is not a call for personal storytelling (unless offered by choice)—it’s a space to lift up the programs, leadership, and strategies making East King County safer and more inclusive.

This evening is about listening without extraction, learning through community wisdom, and committing to collective care. Let’s grow our capacity to be allies, co-conspirators, and changemakers—together.

📧 If your organization supports LGBTQIA+ youth and would like to share your work, email angela@eastsidepathways.org to get involved.
