Blooming Bridges: International LGBT Activism and Art in Taiwan

Sheng and Jennifer spent Winter Term in Taipei, Taiwan gathering content for a multimedia, online zine - utilizing the digital format as an accessible medium to share and reflect on the political climate LGBTQ activists and citizens in Taiwan are living in. They visited historical sites and spoke to people from LGBT community centers, bookstores, and businesses about their experiences. They also spoke to editors at New Bloom Magazine to better understand the roles of media and international politics in LGBT activism.
