 About the Panel\n\nB0NNI33 VI0L3T AKA Duane Quintana is “a queer 
 chaplain” healed from spiritual trauma and called to help others heal 
 from their trauma and assist queer folks in lacing their narrative with a 
 spiritual thread to build resiliency and strengthen individuals, 
 communities, and people as a whole. She has served in queer spirituality 
 for over 10 years as a volunteer, group leader and facilitator working with 
 queer LGBTQ-friendly churches and community centers.\n\nCarolyn Henry - Ms. 
 Henry is 62 years of age. She is an activist for the community! Originally 
 from Louisiana, she lived in Los Angeles all her life before moving to San 
 Francisco in 2015. Ms. Carolyn Henry has been involved with trying to make 
 a better community for us all.\n\nFaluda Islam - A zombie, drag queen and 
 former guerrilla fighter of the queer intifada. She is also the other half 
 of visual artist, performer, and curator Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and is of 
 mixed Pakistani, Lebanese and Iranian descent. She is committed to reviving 
 histories of resistance and resilience in the Muslim world through a 
 practice of future storytelling.\n\nLanda Lakes - A Chickasaw writer, 
 musician, activist, and artist. In 2005, she founded drag performance 
 groups that have contributed to SF’s art and cultural scene: the 
 Two-Spirit Native American drag troupe, the Brush Arbor Guriz and the 
 creative and campy House of Glitter. Landa uses art to combine contemporary 
 ideas with Native history and traditional stories to convey the shared 
 understanding of human nature outside the colonial Christian 
 perspective.\n\nAbout GLIDE\nGLIDE is a social justice movement, social

 the community. Today, under the leadership of President and CEO Karen 
 Hanrahan, GLIDE continues to deepen its impact and extend its reach to 
 thousands of people in need. Through comprehensive services, fearless
