Hi!
Questions are good! This might be helpful/inspiring:
“Open to all who identify as indigenous, POC (people of colour),(e)raced, aboriginal, ‘(in)visible minority’, mixed race, non-white, anyone who’s racialized, etc.”
- from the Fleshtival invite
Also, if your race/heritage feels invisible and you’re seeking community one way or the other, this might be a fun event for you.
