Gay Shame Plans "Welcome" for Creating Change Conference
Local Grassroots Organization to Confront National Nonprofit's Conference
The National Gay Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF) is coming to the Bay Area for its annual Creating Change conference, which is scheduled to take place in Oakland from November 9th through 13th. The NGLTF calls the event the "premier national grassroots organizing and skills building LGBT conference." Gay Shame calls the conference "a spectacle of liberalism in defense of being one of the intitials in either their name or the entire LGBTF panaroma of identities."

Gay Shame plans to give Creating Change its own special welcome. Gay Shame will meet at 11:00am Friday, November 11th at 16th St BART station to go to Oakland and hand out its new zine, which will share "insights into the beautific vision of revolution," at the Creating Change Conference. They plan to return on Sunday to "share with (our) favorite liberal queer advocates again," meeting at 11:00am at 16th Street BART. Read more

Gay Shame continues to hold weekly meetings, and is planning to acknowledge "new yuppie neighbors in the Polk neighborhood" whom it says "are kicking out queer people to make room for more white straight yuppies."
