Our guests today have been empowering fellow queer persons via their organisation and they speak to Farhad & Sunetro about the trust, their personal journey, experiences faced and heard of along the way, pronouns, how can the world be more inclusive, what is right and what is wrong with reference to the laws and narratives, and much more.
Francis Fernandes is the Co-founder and Chairman of Goa Rainbow Trust. He is a 26 year old openly gay man residing in Borim, Goa for the last nine years. He also identifies as androgynous (in terms of gender expression) and homoromantic demi sexual (an identity that lies on the asexuality spectrum). We'd mostly hear him belting out songs as he loves to sing, and also enjoy reading books (depending on the mood) and writing poetry, both of which were fairly recent discoveries. He is currently pursuing writing, and until now, has published a book in the poetry genre titled Music To My Poetry.
He likes to believe that as human beings, we are all an integral part of a rainbow which has such a relatable symbolism — we are all a shade of colour; and when we come together, we become that beautiful band that stands for “unity in diversity.”
Chris Fernandes is the CEO & Founder of Goa Rainbow Trust. They are 39 years old and identify as a trans man residing in Mapusa.
They did a diploma in the hotel industry and then nursing too. They love music, nature and animals. They believe that every human should "live and let live" irrespective of caste, culture, rich, poor, orientation, colour and religion. Respect is very important. And that's the reason why Goa Rainbow Trust is formed "Fight towards humanity embracing diversity".
