CONFERENCE DATE: JUNE 21-24, 2007
LOCATION: CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - www.lovingconference.com
The Loving Decision Conference 2007: The Next 40 Years of Multiracial Communities is an inter/national conference to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of the 1967 Loving v. Virginia supreme court decision which ended the ban on interracial marriage in the United States.
This monumental conference is open to everyone... not just interracial couples!!! We invite not only those who may identify as "multiracial," "multiethnic," or as a "transracial adoptee," but also allies, educators, parents, students, celebrities, policy makers, organization leaders, etc.
Also, this event is not just an ordinary conference... we are planning several events, such as a possible cruise, extravaganza with headliner performers and artists, old school BBQ in downtown Chicago, and so much more. For more information, visit: www.lovingconference.com
