An artist shares the stories of trans and queer immigrants in Minnesota

What does it mean to be at home? In your community, in your family — even in your own body? That’s one of the questions that drove Minneapolis artist Nancy Musinguzi to their current project.

“The Letter Formally Known As Q” is a collection of multimedia stories from trans and queer immigrants in Minnesota. Musinguzi told host Cathy Wurzer about the project and played her a few stories.
