IQBC 2025 | Stevie Inghram MS, YT, AWC, NMS-4 (they, she): Bodhisattvas' in the Margins: Optimizing Queer & Trans Health to Liberate Our Suffering World.
Bodhisattvas’ walk the path of compassion, vowing to alleviate the suffering of all beings; yet, queer and trans Bodhisattvas’ experience disproportionate harm, systemic marginalization, healthcare disparities, and the chronic stress of oppression- all of which manifests as tangible threats to our health & well-being. How can we as queer & trans Dharmic practitioners respond to our individual and collective suffering with wisdom in action?
This talk will explore the deep connections between queer and trans health and the broader liberation of our world. Drawing from Buddhist ethics, human rights, and holistic health perspectives, we’ll examine the structural forces that shape queer & trans health disparities. Through the lense of the Bodhisattva path, we will consider how collective healing and social justice align with Dharma and how optimizing queer & trans well-being is integral to a more just and compassionate society.
By recognizing suffering and responding with engaged care, we can move toward achieving a liberation that embraces all beings. To get there, we must not recognize queer & trans health as a niche concern but one that is vitally a part of transforming suffering into collective freedom.
