"I knew I connected to femininity" - Matthew Nouriel AKA The Empress Mizrahi
Description
On 'When Did You Know?' this week I am joined by Matthew Nouriel. Matthew Nouriel, aka The Empress Mizrahi, is a non-binary digital activist and content creator of Iranian Jewish descent living in Los Angeles, California. In recent years, Matthew has been using their voice to passionately advocate and fight for the causes they believe in - namely LGBTQ+ rights and equality within the Iranian and Jewish communities, and combating antisemitism - using their social media as a means to reach those who relate to their perspective and lived experiences, as well as engaging audiences on panel discussions and speaking engagements across the country. In 2021 they were the recipient of the TrailBlazer Award at the JQ International annual Impact Awards.
