BWMT's national gathering is in Cleveland this summer

by Mike Kelley

Cleveland-People of All Colors Together-Cleveland is proud to announce that they have been chosen to host this year's convention for the National Association of Black and White Men Together. PACT Cleveland is a local chapter of the NABWMT.

The convention will take place at the Wyndham Hotel at Playhouse Square from August 1 to 5. Convention co-chairs John Bush and Mike Kelley are excited about the many opportunities that this convention can bring both to the national association and the local LGBT community of greater Cleveland.

The theme for this convention, “Diversity, a Mosaic in Motion," was chosen to reflect the realities that the LGBT in its entirety is like a mosaic that reflects the multiracial and multicultural beauty of its members and allies. The convention committee has planned workshops around the many "isms" that both divide and oppress the LGBT community.

Convention highlights include an opening reception featuring national trans activist Pauline Park of New York and a concert

by Cleveland's North Coast Men's Chorus. August 2 will feature a three-hour LGBT dinner and dance cruise on the Nautica Queen. Other convention events include the annual Madam X "No Talent" Talent Show, a closing awards banquet and more. As part of its fundraising endeavors, the convention planning committee is hosting PACT's annual Summer Pig Roast and barbecue entitled "Barbie's' Summer Luau." This old-fashioned barbecue and pig roast will take place on June 30, from 3 to 8 pm. There will be volleyball, swimming and an outdoor hot tub. Families are encouraged to bring the kids too.

PACT Cleveland is a multiracial and multicultural organization whose membership is open to the public and made up of people of various races, ethnicities, gender identities and sexual orientations.

Mike Kelley is the co-chair of the national convention committee and of PACT Cleveland.
