Drag Race royalty Alyssa Edwards, trans activist Ts Madison and queer Muslim historian and author Blair Imani lead an incredible line-up of talks, classes and panels for TAIMI Talks.
TAIMI Talks is a weekend-long live streaming event featuring celebrity interviews, classes, chats and much more, hosted by the world’s largest LGBT+ social platform.
The streams are a part of TAIMI’s social mission to combat homophobia, biphobia and transphobia around the world and raise awareness about LGBT+ issues.
Blair Imani — a writer, mental health advocate, and historian living at the intersections of Black, queer and Muslim identity – will also host a powerful conversation on equality and human rights.
Ts Madison will share her tips and tricks for the perfect sweet tea while having a meaningful conversation around issues affecting transgender woman of colour, their needs and ways we can all help in their efforts for equality.
On the topic of living your authentic self, Chris Mosier, a professional trans athlete will address progress in terms of cultural perceptions as well as legislative changes.
“I’m excited to be a part of TAIMI Talks to create space for conversations that need to be happening in our community right now,” says Chris.
“I hope to create a space to empower people to truly be themselves and see others for who they are.”
TAIMI Talks are not only about bringing attention to hard-hitting subject matters but also providing entertaining content for the platform’s 8+ million users.
Drag Race royalty Alyssa Edwards will share her passion for dance and will answer questions from TAIMI users. Celebrity trainer Jason Wimberly will get TAIMI users to break a sweat during his one-of-a-kind workout.
“I’m excited to join TAIMI Talks September 13 because I know we all need to be moving our bodies a lot more than we are these days, so I’m ready to bring you some sweaty fun,” says Jason.
“Fitness for me is really about loving ourselves as we are, but working to build a better us tomorrow, and that is in perfect alignment with the TAIMI brand.
“Get ready to jump, squat, and maybe twerk with me live on the TAIMI app.”
The streams will be the first of its kind for TAIMI — the world’s largest LGBTQ+ platform that features a social network and dating app.
The platform’s founder, Alex Pasykov, says the series is truly a reflection of TAIMI’s evolution.
“TAIMI Talks are all about connecting people during these tremendously difficult times,” says Pasykov.
“It only makes sense for us to launch these flagship series right after TAIMI’s Pride-focused activities. TAIMI Talks have been a dream of mine for a while now, and I am really excited to see this event unfold.”
TAIMI Talks run throughout the weekend of September 12 to 13.
The inspirational live streaming series will be available to more than 8 million TAIMI users worldwide.
