About the event

Join us for a Racial Justice Summit:Boystown & Beyond.

We will address the pervasiveness of racism within the LGBT community and form a locally-based coalition to tackle the issue. Clergy of LGBT-welcoming churches and their parishioners are strongly encouraged to attend. While this event is non-sectarian, Lighthouse recognizes the importance of white churches being challenged to address injustice perpetrated by white people. Attendees will get an opportunity to hear from various voices within the African American LGBTQ+ community from youth and transfolk to cis lesbians, elders, and business owners.
