*X*XX***

and

Having made a serious commitment to have a significant visible presence involvement of Native Americans, Asians and Latins, the National Third World/People of Color Conference has been postponed until June 21st through June 23rd of 1984--Lesbian/Gay Pride Week.

The TW/PC planning committee members felt that there was too much of a Black focus was emerging and therefore more time to doing outreach in needed to devote communities and organizations of Asians, Native Americans, and Latins. However, all other developments for the National Color Conference Third World/People of are firm.

The theme of the TW/PC is "claiming our identities" which was inspired by Cliff's book, Claiming an Michelle

Identity They Taught Me to Despise. Workshops, caucuses, speakers, and cultural events will be highlighted at the national conference which is expected to attract up to 600 participants from throughout the United States as well as Latin America, Canada, and the Caribbean.
