In this online CLGS Lavender Lunch Maij Mai explores what possibilities can exist when cultivating spiritual/faith-based exploration and formation spaces, particularly for marginalized communities whose experiences do not align with institutionalized faith-based spaces, communities, and traditions.

We will explore a variety of decolonial possibilities in this work together, using the first zine edition of the CLGS Asian American/Pacific Islander Roundtable as an experimental tool and example of what decolonial spiritual/faith-based exploration and formation can look like in practice.

Maij’s formal education and training consists of a Bachelors of Arts degree in Sociology and Women, Gender, Sexuality Studies, as well as a Masters of Divinity degree from Wake Forest University.
