Tomorrow on WFAE's "Charlotte Talks" a group of community members will be speaking on issues related to Queer Youth homelessness. This is a much needed discussion and one that is so important for us to discuss. I am hopeful that we are looking at a trend of dealing with issues related to Queer youth and the community beyond gay marriage equality. The show airs tomorrow at 9am and you can listen online.
I would also like to say a big THANK YOU to friends, colleagues, and community members who participated in the first "Community Conversation: Present & Future of the Charlotte Queer Community." I am thrilled that we are having these open space conversations about things that are so important to our moving forward in the community. If we cannot have our voices heard and we cannot give people something to hope for, then our community will face serious problems moving forward. I applaud all the people who are showing up and challenge all those who haven't to come to our next event. Part II of our series will take place on November 11th at UNCC!
