    Armenian-American Olympic gymnast, Houry Gebeshian, speaks about her unlikely path to the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Beyond her positive, upbeat attitude, what comes through most powerfully is her unwavering belief in herself - something most of us could stand to emulate!

  • Episode 69 - The Fight for Inclusivity with Erik Adamian
    Jul 28 2023
    On the precipice of the 2024 Election year (in the U.S.), LGBTQ & Trans rights are in the crosshairs of the alt-right, political conservatives, and hate groups alike -- both nationally and locally. In Los Angeles, the convergence of Armenian & Latino communities with the religious far right has placed queer members of both directly at the center of the storm. In this episode, Erik Adamian, president of GALAS (LGBTQ+ Armenian Society of Los Angeles) speaks about the fight over inclusive curricula in California schools; the misconceptions about what is actually being taught; and the cultural immigrant histories that lie at the heart of the opposition's fear.
