COMMUNITY EVENTS
LGBTQIA+ issues are increasingly important in the national conversation about civil rights, freedom, and legislative and judiciary reform. With recent efforts to codify same-sex marriage, the introduction and passing of “Don’t Say Gay” legislation, and multiple attacks by extremist groups, the struggle for LGBTQIA+ equality is ongoing in 2022.
Panel offers participants a chance to hear and consider what equality looks like for LGBTQIA+ individuals. What is the modern LGBTQIA+ experience? How are recent and historical events impacting the community? Join the Levine Museum of the New South to address these questions in a conversation moderated by Daniel Valdez (Charlotte Pride) alongside Karen Graci (PFLAG Charlotte).
