Let's Talk: Pleasure, Sex & Magic with Lydia Collins

Join us for a conversation with author and sexual health educator Lydia Collins as we discuss Black sexual agency. What does it mean to reclaim pleasure? What does sexual self-care look like after trauma, including colonialism, capitalism, and rape culture? Together we will explore how to foster Black sexual agency, reclaim pleasure and cultivate sexual self-care.  This is a space for Black community members solely.
