What does it mean to belong when your identity defies borders, binaries, and expectations? In this powerful episode, Uruguayan American author and cultural force Caro De Robertis joins host Saadia Khan to explore the deeply personal and political stories behind ‘So Many Stars’’, an oral history honoring queer and trans elders of color. Caro reflects on estrangement, resilience, chosen family, and the defiant joy that shapes queer immigrant narratives. From growing up across continents to reclaiming identity through storytelling, this conversation is a radiant celebration of memory, voice, and liberation. 


Whether you're a parent, activist, or storyteller, Caro’s insights will move you to think differently about history, identity, and the power of being seen.
