Black LGBT(Q)+ Caucus

The BQC is a group of Black LGBTQ+ people who work together to plan and host community events. The BQC represents a cross-section of communities and interest areas within the Black LGBTQ+ community. We directly invest in Black LGBTQ+ people through our programming, designed by and for Black LGBTQ+ people, including large-scale events, all of which are free.

We also offer regular opportunities for Black LGBTQ+ people to meet virtually and in person through our monthly open meetings and quarterly in-person gatherings. In addition to our monthly events, we have ongoing programming like our Black Wellness Tribe, which offers free weekly transformative wellness classes centering Black LGBTQ+ folks. This unique opportunity provides a holistic approach to well-being, combining strength training, endurance training, and functional/mobility exercises.
The BQC is open to those who identify as both Black and LGBTQ+.
- Be a part of something meaningful
- Build community, connect, and network with a diverse range of other Black LGBTQ+ folks
- Get training, political education, and experience you can put on your resume
- Help be a catalyst for change for the next generation of Black LGBTQ+ folks
To join, simply subscribe to our BQC newsletter below to stay updated on upcoming events and opportunities. We also encourage you to attend our next monthly BQC meeting to connect with the community and get involved.
