we should love one another

Moomtaz Khatoon is a short documentary about a gender fluid non-binary activist of Indian descent who grew up in Africa. When she was growing up in Africa, she used to play with girls wearing a veil as she imagined being one of the girls. Nobody said anything to her, that it was wrong. She was just having fun. Until she came to Canada. She was nine years old when she came to Canada. As school people started calling her sissy and girly and she got bullied and bashed in school. She got asked if she liked boys and if she was gay? When she hit puberty, she became very stocky and hairy. So she learned to hide her gender identity and became very ashamed of it. It wasn’t until she started studying counseling when she ran into youth during who said they were non-binary. That gave her permission to start coming out of the closet and start exploring her gender identity. With the recent backlash against trans identity the Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI), Moomtaz has become very worried about South Asian Parents organizing against teaching SOGI in schools. Trans people have always been a part of our culture. The Quran event recognizes Trans identity. There have always been queer and trans characters in the Hindu scriptures as well. She thinks it's important for parents to understand why children growing up should have proper education so they can better understand sexuality and make informed choices about their gender Identity.
