This event is co-sponsored by NQAPIA, PFLAG, NAPAWF-DC, and KhushDC.

In Two Spirits, One Heart, Marsha Aizumi shares her compelling story of parenting a young woman who came out as a lesbian, then transitioned to male. This inspiring memoir chronicles Marsha's personal journey from fear, uncertainty, and sadness to eventual unconditional love, acceptance, and support of her child who struggled to reconcile his gender identity. Told with honesty and warmth, this book is a must-read for parents and loved ones of LGBT individuals everywhere.

Rea Carey, Executive Director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, writes: "Marsha and Aiden's moving story of confronting and overcoming fear - and of the love and deeper bond that emerge between a mother and her son because of that profound journey - shows how all families can accept each other's humanity. I was deeply inspired by the honesty, awareness, and healing found in these pages."

Join us October 25th at 7 PM at the DC Center, 1318 U Street NW.
