    My coming out story - Saliendo del closet

    This is my coming out story - Saliendo del closet. This first episode on Victor Jose's coming out story includes perspectives from his mother, Josefina Santana who is a Dominican born activist, artist and painter. There are sections in this episode that are in Spanish and are intentionally documented in this way as a resource to Spanish speaking parents and their LGBTQIA children. Victor Jose and Josefina discuss their journey of coming out. As Josefina poignantly states in this episode when your child "sale del closet" it also begins a parents own journey of coming out as a parent to an LGBTQIA child.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victor-jose-santana4/support
