" At one point, I just knew."

Whether or not you’re Indigenous, asserting your homosexuality is generally not easy. It’s even harder when you live in a small community. While people are more tolerant, they’re still not completely open. "I'm lucky," says Cody, "my parents just want me to be happy!" He left his environment to pursue his studies, but also to seek new experiences and develop his confidence. He’s certain that gender diversity and different points of view are wealth. What he wants is simply to be able to add his colour to the rainbow of life.
