The Q-List
An exploration of Queer intersectionality
Each week during PRIDE 2022 we explore intersectionality through the experiences and stories of the people we profile.
Kara Areta Alice Beckford
Ngāti Whakaue, Jamaican-Maroons
she/her/they/them/ia
A Black (afro-Caribbean) Māori (Ngāti Whakaue) takatāpui Queer moko, daughter, sister, friend and partner. Kara is a mental health and LGBTQI+ advocate, poet and over-thinker who is writing her PhD thesis on the capacities of BIPOC communities in Aotearoa to be well and live full radical lives. She is persistent in the pursuit of healing, love and wellness as social justice for the communities that she belongs to, including herself. Some of her favourite things are being on her marae, watching b-grade films, kittens, babies, deep and meaningful conversations with strangers and playing her new 1950’s fire red Fender Squire electric guitar! Some of her favourite people, past and present, are her mum, siblings, grandparents and hot Bajan fiancé.
