Raise awareness of LGBTQ+ issues.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

- Create a brave space for courageous conversations with union members to discuss issues pertaining to queer justice and how it affects the labor movement;
- Understand that leaders cannot win larger labor fights unless they work with the community--particularly communities of color--and that we are being divided by corporations and politicians to weaken our movement;
- Learn that leaders have a role in advocating for systemic issues that affect communities of color, such as education, justice, and public safety.
