Understanding Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity
Contact Information
The conversation around sexual orientation and gender identity has evolved and become much richer than at any point in our society’s history.
Sexual orientation and gender identity will be discussed in all of it’s richness so that you leave with a solid knowledge and understanding of both and the differences between them.
The history of U.S. treatment of those in the minority sexual orientation and gender identity communities (LGBTQIA) will be used as a basis for understanding.
- Free event for adults ages 50 and above.
- Registration requested at blm.mn/webtrac.
