Working Our Way Home is a 4-day conference focused on the lives, needs and struggles of people--primarily students in
northeastern Ohio-- in the African Diaspora who would welcome a conversation of their sexualities and genders that are more
complex than mainstream categories. While recognizing language limitations and the difficulties of defining identity, we will
explore
(1) how our racial and ethnic identities relate to our sexuality and gender,
(2) how we self-identify and
exist between and outside conventional/traditional labels, and
(3) how we form homes - supportive communities and families.
