NYC Summit: Putting the “B” in LGBT

What exactly are bi issues? How do bisexual people fit in to the LGBT movement?

This weekend the Task Force, along with the New York Times Company GLBT & Allies Affinity Group, is co-sponsoring a free bisexuality summit to help answer these questions and more.

From the “Putting the B in LGBT” description:

“By holding the summit, organizers hope to develop a consensus between LGBT rights organizations, journalists and political officials that inclusion of bisexual people in the discussion of LGBT issues is necessary.”

The Task Force’s Jaime Grant, director of the Policy Institute, is among the featured panelists.

What: “Putting the B in LGBT” Summit
Who: Organized by the Bi Writers Association and New York’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center
When: Saturday, May 30, 11AM–6:30PM
Where: The Center, 208 West 13 St., New York City

The Task Force’s participation in and support of this summit is part of an ongoing commitment to bi inclusion. This OutSpoken blog has featured bi topics, the Task Force Policy Institute has released an important report on bisexual health and at this year’s National Conference on LGBT Equality: Creating Change, the Task Force honored bisexual activist Robyn Ochs with the Susan J. Hyde Activism Award for Longevity in the Movement.
