Layers of Identity at Work

Dr. Pauline Park has an impressive professional history. Among many accomplishments, she co-founded the New York Association for Gender Rights Advocacy (NYAGRA) and the Queens Pride House, a center for the LGBT communities of Queens. She’s a trangendered Korean adoptee, and we’d say 100% American. Dr. Park’s path illustrates the way she has integrated into her career some salient facets of her identity.

We sure have alot to learn from her example.

Read the post in which she works with her gender, sexual, religious, ethnic and family identities: “Finding the Authentic Self: Coming Out as a Transgendered Korean Adoptee.”
