Greetings!
Back To School - Back To Work
I hope everyone had a great summer and
found some time to relax and rejuvenate on a sandy beach. Now that summer is
over it's back to school time. This September is special
because my grandson started kindergarten, and I am so excited
for him. Everytime we passed a school, he would say, "are they learning in there? I want to learn too."
I am a
proud grandmother!!!!
Now back to work. I am heading to
Washington, DC to attend the National Black Justice Coalition's first, "Out on
the Hill," Black LGBT Leadership Summit, in conjunction with the Congressional
Black Caucus Foundation's Legislative Conference. There will be Black LGBT
leaders from around the country converging on the Capitol to participate in
social action to educate our Congressional leaders and other federal agencies.
You know I'll be there representing
Black lesbians.
For more information on "Out on the
Hill,"
In solidarity,

Video project in progress - Documenting Our Stories |
We have identified the participants for the upcoming
video shoot to document the lives of Black lesbian families. This
is a collaboration between Zuna Institute, NIA Collective and Queer Women Of
Color Media Arts Project. For one month we will be following these families around in
order to tell their stories in support of same-sex marriage.
We'll keep you posted!

Thanks to a grant from the
Horizons Foundation, we are collaborating with The NIA Collective and Queer
Women of Color Media Arts Project on a video project that will be used to raise
support for same-sex marriage among people of color.
