Join author Johnson Chong and an esteemed panel of members of the gay community to celebrate the launch of his book Sage Sapien: From Karma to Dharma.
 
As LGBTQ people, we live in the shadows of marginalization. As a gay Chinese-American, Johnson Chong found himself in the minority of a minority, torn between strict eastern values of hetero-normalcy and western values of freedom and individualism. Join us for an evening panel discussion about cultural identity, sexual identity, spiritual identity, and identity as a limiting construct. Johnson Chong, author of Sage Sapien: From Karma to Dharma shares nuggets of wisdom from his book in a panel discussion where he is joined by respected members of the queer community: Joseph Reid (Language & Communications Expert), Drew Stevens (Artistic Director of the Feminist Press) & Yusef Miller (Award Winning Playwright).
 
The purpose of this evening is to celebrate our pain as an opportunity for healing in this polarized and emotionally traumatized chapter in American history. Join us for a fun, thought-provoking evening to re-enliven your spirit. The evening will culminate in a guided meditation for queer empowerment through queer spirituality.
