As we celebrate Pride Month 2023, we present Rainbow Talks, a casual conversation among members of the Rutgers LGBTQIA+ community about life, success, love and everything in between.

Meet our participants: AJ Quiray, a Class of 2023 graduate of the School of Health Professions; Keywuan Caulk, director of the Center for Social Justice Education and LGBT Communities at Rutgers University-New Brunswick; Ayoko Kessouagni, a rising senior in the School of Arts and Sciences-Newark; and Gary Santos Mendoza, director of the Intercultural Resource Center at Rutgers University-Newark.

Chapters:
1. (00:15) - Who was the first queer person in your life?
2. (04:02) - What do you love after coming out?
3. (09:02) - What does successful allyship look like?
4. (11:34) - When was the first time you realized you were different?
