Description

This episode commemorates Pride Month by bringing together three students from the LGBTQIA+ community to share snippets of their experiences. Maria (India), Temi (Nigeria), and Raphael (Switzerland) join host Dorcas to have an organic conversation about everything from coming out stories to the difference in their experiences here in Japan and their home countries, as well as how heterosexual folks can be better allies to their LGBTQIA+ friends.

今回のエピソードでは、プライド月間を記念して、LGBTQIA+コミュニティから3人の学生が集まり、それぞれの体験談を語ってくれました。マリア(インド)、テミ(ナイジェリア)、ラファエル(スイス)の3人は、ホストのドルカスと一緒に、カミングアウトの話から、日本での経験と母国での経験の違い、異性愛者がLGBTQIA+の友人の味方になるにはどうしたらいいかなど、オーガニックな会話をしています。
