On Power Beyond Pride, Melodie KG and Shane Lukas welcome Susanna Shaul, a NYC-based art director and designer with deep roots in immigrant advocacy and LGBTQ+ community support. Susanna describes how queer and immigrant justice work often runs on parallel tracks, even though many asylum seekers are fleeing anti-LGBTQ+ persecution. She shares sobering examples of how fear is shaping community life—from immigrants being discouraged from attending Pride for safety reasons, to ICE showing up at a Queens high school.
