BLACK LESBIAN SUPPORT GROUP

THE TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION ARE DESIGN BY AND FOR LESBIANS, WITH EMPHASIS ON THE AFRICAN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE IN AMERICA.  SOME TOPICS ARE GENERATED FROM PREVIOUS  DISCUSSIONS, PRESSING ISSUES IN SOCIETY, TOPIC CONTEST,  FEEDBACK FROM ONE-ON-ONE SESSIONS AND THE GLBT COMMUNITY.

THE STEERING COMMITTEE OF BLSG MEET ONCE EVERY QUARTER AND PLAN THE TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION.  TOPICS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE BUT WE TRY TO PLAN OUR TOPICS SO THEY WILL SUSTAIN THE INTEREST OF THE WOMEN FOR THE ALLOTTED TIME (3PM TO 5PM EVERY 1ST, 2ND AND 4TH SATURDAY.)  BEFORE WE BEGIN EACH DISCUSSION WE OPEN THE FLOOR FOR WOMEN TO TALK ABOUT PRESSING OR STRESSING ISSUES IN THEIR LIFE, IF NO ONE STEPS FORWARD IN THE BEGINNING WE OPEN IT AGAIN FOR THE LAST THIRTY MINUTES.  WE FEEL THAT  SOME SISTERS (ESPECIALLY NEWCOMERS) NEED A LITTLE TIME TO WARM UP TO THE GROUP.  

SO IF YOU CLICK ON ANY MONTH, YOU WILL DISCOVER THE TOPICS FOR THAT PARTICULAR MONTH.
