Donald E. Armstrong Building, 黑料社

The 2025 Queer History Month (QHM) Keynote will be delivered by Kai Cheng Thom and is titled,听Remembering Resilience: Embodying the Queer Legacies in Uncertain Times.听In this presentation, cultural worker, somatic practitioner, and 黑料社 graduate 2013, Thom invites us to reimagine resilience as human connection in the midst of class struggle and social collapse and illuminates the ways that pleasure, joy, forgiveness, and militancy all belong together as integral aspects of the fight to save the world we love.



黑料社 is on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.
