Beyond the Rainbow, a project of The Curve Foundation, is a groundbreaking conversation series that seeks to create an intersectional, multi generational space touching on gender, queerness, race, ability, and activism of yesterday and today. Beyond the Rainbow seeks to challenge the possibilities and limits of queer representation as a path towards liberation.

Our communities are rife with anti-Blackness and indigenous erasure, and currents of machismo that allow sexism and homophobia to force us into exile often a second generation of exile for those of us born to refugees. In the spirit of Latinx Heritage month we envision us exploring what it means to return a casa: how we reconcile with the wounds of machismo, homofobia, and re-create comunidad with our elders and chosen family

Queer womanhood is evolving, as are ideas of gender and sexuality. Loving women and creating safe queer spaces are hallmarks of lesbian lore, but what does it mean to love women and ourselves, today? Where are we buoyed by our love, and when does our womanhood let us down? For the launch of Beyond The Rainbow, we held a conversation on Lesbian Visibility Day to talk about gender, queer womanhood, and what visibility means to us. Moderator: Executive Director, Jasmine Sudarkasa Panelists: Andy Marra, Executive Director of the
Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund Lutze Segu, the Social Justice Doula Dr. Alexis Romero Walker, Assistant Professor at Manhattanville College
