Creating Accessible Neighbourhoods is starting a speakers series. We are beyond thrilled to announce our first event on October 22nd, 2022 at 3:00 PST on Zoom. We will be speaking with author Eliot Schrefer about his book Queer Ducks (and Other Animals) The Natural World of Animal Sexuality. The interview will be recorded and posted to our YouTube channel.
Queer Ducks is a fascinating, well-researched, teenager-friendly exploration into queer behaviours in animals. It also discusses how bias can affect the sciences and therefore our perspective of the natural world.
CAN (LET’S) members who have already read this book say it is “affirming for all the queer folk who were ever told being queer is unnatural”, “joyful”, “easy to read”, and “a wonderful example of how much we still have to learn”.
The event is free for all. We will post the event information on our website later in September. We will send an email out to all newsletter subscribers.
