2NDGENders Podcast

The 2NDGENders podcast is a living archive by and for BIPOC, trans and gender diverse second generation migrants. Join me in conversation as we talk, cry, laugh, and create space for the questions and stories our experiences of gender, family, culture, and belonging have brought us. Centering contemplative storytelling about our lives and experiences, the role of 2NDGENders is to spark conversations that explore our experiences of identity formation through the many worlds we traverse and the spaces we embody between them.
