In dieser Folge von Let’s talk about Menschenrechte sprechen Annalena und Katharina mit dem Two Spirit Gavin Scott aus den USA und der Expertin Sabine Lang aus Deutschland über das Thema der Two Spirit. Dabei beschäftigen sie sich mit geschichtlichen Aspekten, insbesondere der Kolonialzeit, dem indigenen Verständnis von Queerness und der Diskriminierung, die Two Spirit People seit jeher in unserer Gesellschaft erfahren.
In this episode of Let’s talk about Menschenrechte we invited Gavin Scott who identifies as Two Spirit and the anthropologist Sabine Lang who through her years of studies is an expert on that topic to talk with us about Two Spirit and the indigenous understanding of queerness. We talked about general aspects of Two-Spirits, the history of Two-Spirits and what’s it like to identify as a Two-Spirit in todays society.
If you couldn’t get enough of Gavin and Sabine and if you want to grow your knowledge on this topic even more, here are some links to previous work of the two.
