March 14, 2020Nasir When dreams transition and fear fadesFrom the age 6 Nasir had a voice inside that said something was different and it scared him. The fear came from the fact that the world on the outside was not reflecting who Nasir knew he was from the inside. In his heart Nasir was a man, but his cousin was telling him to get ready to grow breasts when you grow up — because Nasir had the organs of a female. The shattering feeling of the world not recognizing your inner voice and that your dreams of being a man might not become the reality is a haunting premise that can break a heart. Maybe it was from experiencing fear, a different view of life that in his later years gave Nasir a voice and material to channel artwork that fuels his creativity but again Nasir had to make a choice — to go through a transition with injecting testosterone and risk losing your singing voice and maybe lose the thing that brings you peace and safety or to not go through with the transition and not honor the inner voice of who you are. This is Nasir’s beautiful story of transition and Nasir’s amazing voice.

March 12, 2020Edrian The journey of finding ourselfEdrian is a creative soul who realized early on that in order to live his authentic life that he would need to come out to his parents as gay. However, Edrian also comes from a very traditional Filipino family so this would make the experience doubly hard. None of us want to disappoint our family and we all want validation and love. We want to be accepted and have a bond with our mothers and fathers and if this deep desire doesn’t get met, what do we do? How do we make sense of this day to day and forge ahead with a life that still means something to us. In Edrian’s story he talks about pain and forgiveness, love and family, his art and film and finding his own way.
