With October being Coming Out Month, I thought I would re-introduce a subgroup in our LGBTQ community that is too often forgotten and/or ignored — lesbians, bisexual, and transgender women of African descent.
I want to re-introduce this group because a groundbreaking study in July came out titled “Black Lesbians Matter” examining the unique experiences, perspectives, and priorities of the Black LBT community, and sadly little is known about it.
