National Lesbian Conference 2nd regional planning meeting |
Title | National Lesbian Conference: 2nd Southern Regional Planning Meeting Materials |
Date | 1989 |
Description | The National Lesbian Conference was held in Atlanta, Georgia, April 24-28, 1991. Leading up to the event, a number of smaller regional planning committees met to discuss fundraising opportunities, itinerary, and ways to make the conference as accessible and inclusive as possible. This communication flyer indicates that the Southern Planning Committee met in Gainesville, Florida, and women from all southern states (including Alabama) were encouraged to attend. While the conference drew nearly 2,500 participants and boasted “one full day of caucuses, five plenaries, four mornings of anti-oppression training and slightly fewer that [sic] three hundred workshops,” a national group did not develop. |
