We are thrilled to have Skye Curtis as our speaker. You may remember her as she was one of last year’s recipient of a PFLAG Detroit scholarship.
Skye is an LGBT ally and an extremely energetic activist. She started a GSA at Troy High School and one of their projects was to organize a protest at Troy's City Hall. They stood in the snow for hours protesting the mayor of Troy, Janice Daniels, in an effort to oust her because of her anti-gay remarks. That is just one example of Skye's continuous effort to educate the public and fight for equal rights!
Now that Skye has moved on to college at St. Olaf in Minnesota she continues to educate, which is especially challenging in a very conservative and rural part of the country. She will be joining us as our speaker on June 9th to update us with her current activities as she continues her work as one of our most energetic allies!
As always, we welcome everyone, whether member or non-member, and all GLBTQ folks, families and friends.
Our meeting will begin promptly at 2:00 pm with Support Groups meeting after the introductions.
Due to the importance of the stories being told by persons in our group discussion, interruptions can be very distracting. We ask that you arrive on time to be able to enter into these groups. Any persons arriving late may be asked to form their own group with a PFLAG greeter. We appreciate your understanding in this matter. Social Half Hours with refreshments will begin at 3:30pm Our speaker will present at 4:00pm after brief announcements After the meeting, or anytime on our meeting day, enjoy a Pizza & a beer or any other fine menu items at Shield's Of Troy and help support PFLAG Detroit at the same time.
