Dear All
Greetings!
Rising Flame and The Blind Graduates Forum of India
together present Rising Flame’s workshop series: "Naa Main Naa Hain:
Understanding Consent, Love and Violence in Intimate Relationships".
What is this workshop?
Have you ever felt confused, what if the expressions are saying yes
but they actually saying no? How does one know?
Have you ever thought of, "I am a woman; can I make the first move?"
Has it ever bothered you that your responses must either be yes or no?
If you relate to any of these questions or have more and you live
with a disability, then this
workshop is for you. Romance and relationships are complicated.
Boundaries get blurred.
They get even thinner when we live with a disability; and when
boundaries blur and consent can't be gauged, we end up hurting
ourselves or the other person.
Let's get together to discuss, talk and understand
through songs, conversations and a bucket load of fun.
Date: Saturday, 25 May, 2019
Time: 1:30 pm to 6pm

Sec 5 R.K.Puram, Delhi
