Angelic Troublemakers Dinner: An Evening Honoring Eugene Daniels
Eugene Daniels will become the first Black queer man to assume the esteemed role of President of the White House Correspondents Association. This groundbreaking milestone will be celebrated through an exclusive dinner event hosted by the Bayard Baldwin Institute: A Project of Native Son, in partnership with the Human Rights Campaign. This event is invite only.
Without Exception Brunch
As queer communities bend over backwards to show our country how we love, live, and work like everyone else, the truth is that we are not like everyone else. And that is what make us beautiful. As our communities prepared to attend the NAACP Image Awards, we worked with the NAACP and the Human Rights Campaign to create a space just for us.
