​Queer South Asian Community Pride is being organized by Queer South Asians (QSA) which is a volunteer run, trans-led community group in Toronto organizing accessible and culturally affirming programs for the LGBTQ+ South Asian community. QSA was founded by Arshi Syed, a Bangladeshi, immigrant, queer and trans man in 2015. Learn more at queersouthasians.ca or IG @queer_southasians
